Samsung stops producing blu players

Samsung has been one of the most important companies in the Blu-ray player market. But the Korean brand has surprised many with its new announcement. Since they announce that they stop producing this type of device, in addition to leaving this market. Something that could be seen in part, because in 2018 and 2019 there was no new device from the Korean firm.

Bad sales would be the main responsible for this decision by the company. Although it is still a surprise, because in their day they were one of the drivers of this format.

Samsung leaves Blu-ray aside

According to some media, Samsung's decision would only affect the American market. Although it is strange, because it is the market in which the firm sells the most. Therefore, if this is the case, the rest of the markets in which the Korean brand sells these Blu-ray players will surely follow soon. Without a doubt, it can be a significant change in this specific market.

Since Samsung is one of the most important brands in this segment. His departure could result in other brands copying his decision. In fact, last year it was OPPO that announced that they stopped selling Blu-ray players.

So in months, two major brands stop selling their Blu-ray players. Something that should be taken as a symptom that things are not going well in the sector. What we don't know is if there will be more brands soon to follow these steps. Is the end of Blu-ray coming?
