All things being equal, sunlight on Mars at aphelion would be about 36% as strong as sunlight on Earth. But Mars has a thinner atmosphere, so this will brighten it a little. Because your eyes adapt to the available light, the difference would be less noticable. Without a brighter comparison (sunny day vs. cloudy day here), the light would not seem intrinsically less.
