PS4 Pro can't play 4K Blu-ray

As an upgraded and more powerful PlayStation 4, the new PlayStation 4 Pro delivers dynamic 4K entertainment which enables you to stream the biggest movies, hottest TV shows and latest videos in 4K resolution from Netflix, YouTube and a host of other entertainment apps. However, the biggest omission with the new PS4 Pro will not have a 4K Blu-ray player, but will instead just support regular HD Blu-rays and DVD.

Will PS4 Pro update with 4K Blu-ray support?
Sony has its own official reason for not including the UHD BD Drive in the PS4 Pro, there are also countless other attempts by PS4 fans to justify Sony's decision such as the excruciatingly optimistic suggestions from some quarters that the PS4 Pro may be able to add Ultra HD Blu-ray support via a firmware update. However, Sony's CE division states that it's been waiting to launch an Ultra HD Blu-ray player until 4K distribution via disc becomes 'common' - something it seems to anticipate happening as early as in 2018.
