Sony may finally be done making Blu-ray players. Sony Japan has discontinued the UBP-X700/K, the company's last UHD Blu-ray player.
The news comes from the Japanese blog Kunoku , which is also a Sony retailer. Per the post, sales of the X700 are ending today, October 22, in Japan.
I checked the Sony Japan store, which confirms that the player is discontinued. Under the listing, it reads (machine translated), "Out of stock. This item will not be restocked."
Japan is Sony's home country, and while US and other international versions of the X700 are currently available, this portends the end of Sony's manufacturing of Blu-ray players.
The UBP-X700/K is just over a year old, having launched in May 2025, but it was also the only UHD Blu-ray player that Sony was selling anywhere.
