He’s right, the standard, stock settings on most (all?) new TVs are terrible. Too bright, too contrasty, and way too many motion-smoothing and artifact-filtering options turned on, or turned too high.
I recently bought a new OLED TV (LG), and when I first turned it on I thought maybe I had made a mistake buying it. Dark colors were totally crushed into black. But once I fiddled with the settings and got it the way I like it? Beautiful.
The stores do that intentionally for effect to counter their bright lights. An honest salesman will tell you so.

that’s good to know ... been thinking about buying an OLED ... my only problem is that i’ve got one of the last plasma models Samsung ever made and it’s pretty hard to justify upgrading it ...
