ever wondered what the little black dot next to the earpeace (to the right) is? well, it's a light sensor! to show you what it does, try covering it while the phone is in a bright place, notice the keypad light comes on? cool huh? yep
Another way our beloved se is saving our battery life... this sensor also varys the display's brightness according to the situation! cool eh

yup.. the good 'ol 7650 even has it... though i'ts for the loudspeaker. when you play a clip or make a phone call using the speaker, put it in your ear and it redirects the sound the the earpiece.

also, what if you make a call(putting the phone on your ear covering the sensor) , and the sensor "thinks" its dark, and lights up the backlight. still not smart enough of SE to put it there (unless they've tweaked the software...)

No. I know the speaker is below the cam. But there's a small thing beside the cam. Does anyone knows the uses of it?
