At the top left of the inside of your macbook pro can you see a small groups of dots in a circle?

What is this? Possibly the microphone?

No. Can you post a pic of what you're talking about?

yes.

Omnidirectional microphone (located under left speaker grille)

On my anti glare display it's next to the camera.

The only thing next to the camera is the camera on light.

 

[ayeying]

It's only visible on the 13" models. The 15 and 17" models have the microphone inside the grill. It's the same with the current model Airs.

See pic.

No, the light's on the other side of the camera.

The glossy will be different (because of the glass) but there is a circular array of holes to the left of the camera on the antiglare MBP, and if it isn't a mic I really can't imagine what it is.

Ambient light sensor

Yeah, that works - putting a finger over it dims the display nicely

 

[funwithamar]

Ambient light sensor

It is indeed, thanks! Covering it up made my keyboard backlight work in full daylight

I assume funwithamar is talking about the OP's bunch of holes, not the one on top of the screen.
