Check the picture
The first thing you should check is the picture quality. Turn the TV on and check if the images are clear and bright. Take a look at different channels and see if the picture quality changes. If the picture is not clear, try adjusting the brightness, contrast, and color settings. If nothing works, it might be a problem with the TV.
Check the sound
After checking the picture quality, turn up the volume and check if the sound is loud enough. Check if the TV speakers produce a good sound or if there is any distortion. Try to listen to certain scenes that have a lot of sound effects or background music. If you find that the sound is not so good, check if the TV has any sound settings that can help with the sound quality.
Check the remote control
Make sure to check the remote control as well. The remote should be working perfectly. Test it by changing channels, adjusting the volume, and switching the TV on and off. If the remote control is not working properly, it might be a problem with the remote control or the TV.
Check the distance of the remote control
The wireless range of the remote control can be different depending on the TV model. Check if the remote control works from different distances (near, middle, and far). If the remote control does not work well from a near distance, the problem might be with the remote control. If the remote control does not work well from a far distance, the problem might be with the TV.
Check the TV ports
Make sure to check the TV ports such as HDMI, USB, audio ports, etc. Connect your laptop or another device to the TV and see if it works. Check if the device is recognized by the TV and if the sound and picture quality is good. If the device is not recognized, check if the ports are damaged or not.
Check the TV menu
Every TV has its own menu with different settings and features. Check the TV menu and familiarize yourself with the settings. Check if the TV menu is user-friendly and easy to navigate. If you find any difficulties, it might be a problem with the TV model.
In conclusion, checking the functionality of a TV is important to avoid any unwanted surprises. Start by checking the picture quality, sound quality, remote control, distance, TV ports, and the TV menu settings. If you are not satisfied with any of the above areas, do not hesitate to ask the store representative for help or do further research online.
