What is the round thing on the left of the ear piece?

I searched and read the manual but this is unclear.
I understand that on the right hand side of the earpiece there are front cam and notification LED embeded but what is the smaller round thing on the left side of it?
Thanks.
That is the light sensor. It does a couple of things. It adjusts the screen brightness depending on light level wherever you may be, and it will also deactivate your screen while you are in a call by sensing your face is near the receiver.
It must be a light sensor. Used to help with setting the automatic brightness. Might also be used to determine whether the ringtone mode should be set to "Pocket Mode" possibly, but that's just speculation. But it's a light sensor.
Thanks guys... I thought proximity sensor on the black area = light sensor
thats some alien thingy. it fires up laser if you stare at the device too long.

Proximity Issues

Lately I've been having issues with my proximity sensor/phone. It seems the proximity sensor auto initiates speaker mode, if I move my phone away from my face. I tried looking for settings, but found none.
Has anyone else had this issue? If so, was there any fix?
