A

The Proximity/Light sensor is located to the right of the ear speaker near the top edge of the front on your Samsung phone.

The main function of the Proximity/Light sensor is to Turn off screen, when the phone is in close proximity to the human body. It will turn the screen on, when the phone is outside a specific range to the human body.

For example, you may put your phone on your ear during a phone call. If the phone is too close to your face, it will turn off the screen to prevent accidental keypad presses by your face.
