Sounds like a backlight issue. have you tried the original display?

My bet is you purchased a replacement screen that isn't very high quality. When you press the screen, the backlight layer of the display is coming closer to the screen surface which makes it appear brighter.

@salad Probably a low quality display as Steve Godun said, try the original display if you still have it and report back to us. :)

Make sure the metal plate is tight, and make sure you have foam pads on the connectors. (You can transfer them over from the original)
