The sellers are laughing at you (all of us) for wasting your money on pointless steelbooks just because they look nice. In reality, the most important thing is the actual movie, not the superficial packaging.

Anything better than the current blu-ray is an obvious improvement. The current BD is absolutely awful.

You can even put a scratched CD inside a premium edition and most of them won't even bother as they don't open it. Sadly because of this attitude, Studios and retailers are milking Steelbook collectors. If you want to change this trend, please come and join my quitters club, and feel relieved.

Or you could just unwrap and watch.

Actually it’s VERY good compared to the BD. It’s got natural grain, the colors are punchier. It’s a subtle but much better disc.

UHD has Atmos which sounds more fuller and the bass digging deep as well.

Agreed the scenes on Krypton especially look great in 4K/HDR

The Digital Bits gave it nice reviews.

Man of Steel was shot principally on photochemical film in 35mm format, and then greatly enhanced digitally and finished to a 2K Digital Intermediate. This DI was upscaled to 4K and given a new HDR color timing pass for this release. While the image here is not true 4K, as is Fox’s The Revenant for example, what you see here is a distinct improvement upon the previous Blu-ray release. The range of contrast in the image is broader, with notably more detail visible both in the brightest and darkest extremes. What’s more, color is more vibrant and nuanced, and there’s greater fine detail that reveals itself especially in the unique textures of Krypton. Just examine the background and costume detail in the scene in which Jor-El is confronting the Kryptonian Elders. It’s exquisite. The High Dynamic Range adds a lovely measure of punch and vibrancy to specular highlights on things like Kryptonian particle displays and high-energy effects like weapons blasts and explosions. This is surely the best visual presentation of Man of Steel to date, including both its previous Blu-ray and the best theatrical presentations, and that is no small thing.
