Thx for you're reply, but the brightness was not on automatically.
Brightness was set to max because I was outside in the sun to make pictures.
Maybe it was brightness on max and one of the sensors gets wrong info?

At home the problem was solved... I did the same and the screen stay's normal.

Take off your polarized sun glasses. Exactly what happens when I wear mine.

You are right @drowe! Amazing... how is this happening!?
I tried this at home and it was how you said it!

All phone screens have polarizing filters in them, in order to make them more visible in the outdoors. When the polarizing filter in your phone screen is at 90 degrees to the one in your sunglasses, the only light that can make it's way into your phone screen due to that polarizing filter on your phone is thus blocked by the polarizing filter in your sunglasses, creating the effect you mention above.

Noticed this the other day (where I live there's hardly any sun to justify sunglasses)

I can't afford polarized sunglasses so it'll never happen to me.

This conversation is going a little off topic but yeah you can get cheap polarized sunglasses.
