Anyone else have a weird half dot to the left of the time when using safari?

Almost looks like the iPad mouse cursor. Most noticeable on a white background, but there all the time. Anyone else see this? 15.0.2 - iphone13pro

If I pull Notification Center down slowly it disappears immediately.

doesn't that mean the mic is active, or the camera? i have that on my macbook (a dot, for audio, since i use boom3)

Dots for camera and microphone are orange and green as per this link.

About the orange and green indicators in your iPhone status bar

With iOS 14 or later, an orange dot, an orange square, or a green dot indicates when the microphone or camera is being used by an app.

Quick google searching for "iphone half blue dot" brings up numerous results including this one which i think explains your issue :-

Thanks bransoj. Guess it's voice control activated. Weird UX as at first I thought it was dead pixels or some gunk on my screen. Much easier to see after taking a screenshot and zooming in, but is super tiny on the actual iPhone screen.
