Why does motion look blurry on my new smart TV?

I just got a JVC Google QLED 4K 55-inch smart TV, and while the picture quality is decent, I've noticed that when I play games on my PS5, there's an annoying blur with motionโ€”especially evident on things like wire meshes and cel-shading graphics. I've checked the settings, but nothing seems to work. I'm not very tech-savvy with TV settings, so any guidance would be really appreciated. I'm happy to answer any questions that might help figure this out, thanks!

Make sure to enable game mode on your TV. This can help reduce input lag, but it might also lock the MEMC (Motion Estimation, Motion Compensation) setting, which can influence smoothness. You might not see a complete fix, but itโ€™s a good first step.

Check if the motion blur setting in your game options can be turned off. Also, consider whether the TV's refresh rate matches the requirements of the games you're playing; a low refresh rate can contribute to the blurriness.

Sometimes TVs apply overscan, which can lead to blurriness on 4K signals. Check the aspect ratio settings in your TV menu. Switching from Automatic to an Unscaled option might give you a sharper image by eliminating unnecessary scaling.
