A device for detecting light intensity, a display screen and a mobile terminal are provided. The device for detecting light intensity includes a controller, and a first photosensitive sensor and a second photosensitive sensor which are electrically coupled to the controller, the first photosensitive sensor and the second photosensitive sensor being spaced apart and located in a same illumination environment, and the controller is configured to, when an external beam illuminates the first photosensitive sensor, perform calculation based on a difference value between illumination parameters of the first photosensitive sensor and the second photosensitive sensor to obtain a light intensity of the external beam.

Embodiments provide a proximity sensor located at a side edge of a terminal or a top side edge of the terminal. A first included angle is formed between light emitted by the proximity sensor and a touchscreen of the terminal. The terminal obtains data detected by a motion sensor, and motion data of the terminal based on the data detected by the motion sensor. The terminal determines whether the motion data is less than a first threshold. If the motion data is less than the first threshold, the terminal determines that no external object is currently approaching, and skips performing a mistouch prevention action. If the motion data is greater than or equal to the first threshold, the terminal determines, based on data detected by the proximity sensor, whether an external object is approaching, and determines, based on a determining result, whether to subsequently perform the mistouch prevention action.
