This new indicator is used to notify the user of new messages and incoming calls because it is difficult for the phone to signal similar events when the sound or vibration of the smartphone is turned off.
In addition, in some situations where it is not possible to view the screen of the mobile phone, such as when the mobile phone is placed upside down on a table or in a bag, the indicator light can still provide information at this time, so as to notify the user of new information in time.
