Help What is this?

If you remove the back of the SGS2 there's a little gold thing and I've no idea what it is...

Immediately to the left of the SD card slot is a shiney screw. About 10mm above that is a gold circular "thing" with a tine hole in the centre.

What is that? Looks like a mini wifi connector, maybe?

PS: Found this picture on the web, so put a little circle round the bit I asking about...

It's an antenna connector, probably for GSM or GPS.

yeah its a connector for an external antenna for GSM, lots of phones have them although i dont know why you would use it lol

watched a video today that mentioned the very thing
it's just an aerial antenna socket that is used by the manufacturers at build stage to test signal.
my old razr has it externally with a ickle rubber cover on

Just got the handset yesterday and wondered about this too. If it had an external hole with rubber bung, it would be for connection to a car-kit aerial I'd have thought. Maybe they plan to make an alternative rear cover with a hole if needed?
