Sensors; Using The Touch Screen - Sony Ericsson Xperia X10 mini Extended User Manual

Sensors

Your phone includes a light sensor and a proximity sensor. The light sensor detects the
ambient light level and adjusts the brightness of the screen accordingly. The proximity
sensor turns the touch screen off when your face touches the screen. This prevents you
from unintentionally activating phone functions when you are engaged in a call.
