No front facing camera unfortunately. Should be a hole for the light and proximity sensors...

Yes, as stated earlier, definitely for the light and proximity sensors. If you want to test it, when you are on a call, cover up the hole with your finger. The proximity sensor will turn your display off until you remove your finger again.
