Quietly withdrawn from the market

Sony's official representatives in Finland announced to SuomiMobiili, the country's leading technology news platform, that all models, including the Xperia series, will no longer be available for direct sale in Finland. This development signals that the company is reviewing its global mobile strategy.

All eyes on Europe's giant markets

Following this decision from Finland, attention has turned to other major European markets. A striking detail has emerged on Sony's official websites in Germany, France, Spain, and the United Kingdom. The presence of "out of stock" or "unavailable" labels for many devices, including its new flagship model, the Xperia 1 VII, has reinforced claims that the brand is preparing to cease sales in these countries as well.

The possibility of Sony's quiet and gradual withdrawal from the European mobile market has already generated considerable buzz in tech circles, with industry experts suggesting the company could be making a radical shift in its smartphone strategy.
