Was looking for more recent reviews of the M2P or maybe something along the vein of "after 6 months."

This is a bullish review but one segment is intriguing for owners and those considering buying:

The Mavic 2 Pro Is Still a Work in Progress

Curiously, the Mavic 2 Pro is missing some of the important video features found on the older Mavic Pro. For example, it currently doesn’t offer D-Cinelike recording, which is a favorite for many who didn’t want to go to the work of shooting in a Log colorspace and post-processing. Shortly after the release of the Mavic 2 Pro, DJI did make a LUT for its DLog-M mode freely available, so as long as you have a program like Premiere Pro, Power Director, DaVinci Resolve, or Final Cut, you can shoot in 10-bit with DLog-M and post-process for a more sophisticated look than the default. Similarly, you can shoot in 10-bit HLG if you have a display device that supports it. The default color mode does a basic correction for you and then records your video in 8-bits ready for viewing. Personally, I can’t wait until Adobe enables third-party LUTs in Premiere Rush, as its lightweight UI is ideal for most of the drone videos I work with.

Some of the photo, video, and flight modes from the Mavic Pro are still missing, and the promised Waypoint functionality has also not been delivered yet. As of now, there are six intelligent flight modes supported: Hyperlapse, ActiveTrack, QuickShot, Point of Interest, TapFly, and Cinematic.

Has DJI publicly promised to add some of these other modes in firmware?

Ha! I’m one of the “forgotten ones “ who bought a Crystalsky monitor and is STILL waiting for Waypoints!
Further features to come are just a dream for us it seems.
