When it comes to consumer electronics, few purchases are as exciting as a new television. If you've already had the opportunity to buy a new TV, you've probably wanted to watch your favorite series and films or even enjoy some games with superior image quality.

However, the website Engadget says that it is relatively common for users, after purchasing a new television, to notice lower-than-expected image quality. If you have ever been in this situation, know that there is a function that is always recommended to be disabled.

According to the publication, several television models come, when they are turned on for the first time, with the so-called “Store Mode” activated. This configuration aims to make automatic adjustments so that the television is displayed in a store environment, mainly taking into account the more intense lighting in these locations.

Therefore, it is recommended to disable “Store Mode” before starting to make manual adjustments to image quality. This change can be made in the television's settings, and although the location of this function varies by brand, exploring the available settings for a few minutes should be enough to find it.

Instead of “Store Mode”, it is recommended to activate “Home Mode” or “Home Mode”. While you'll probably need to make some additional adjustments to get the image quality you prefer, you'll definitely notice an immediate improvement.
