Upsetting iPhone7 plus replacment screen quality.

I just ordered a replacement screen directly from ifixit, because I did not want to cheap out on this part. I paid very close attention and was very careful with the replacement portion. Everything went very smoothly. The issue is with the replacement part it self. The colors and brightness of the screen is very washed out and not as nearly as good as the original. There is also a white circle near the bottom right corner of the display. It just looks very cheap.

Second the front facing microphone gives me just static, so Siri does not work and can not hear anything but static.

Third the Touch ID sensor does not work anymore. The home button works great but when I go into setting and try setting my finger print, I receive an error.

The fourth issue with this screen, is that the 3D Touch is very finicky. Near the top of the phone it seems to work, but other times I have to press really hard for it to identify or it just doesn’t work at all.

All of the problems appear to me as being a cheap part. I thought ifixit sold really high quality replacement parts, which is why I spent the 90$ for it. But I am very upset with this part and I am not pleased with the results.
