Phantom 4 pro: has anyone tried it?

From september to november I have done some drone shooting with a Phantom 4, but I was very disappointed with the video quality.
I find the dynamic range extremely limited, hardly any info in the shadow area, trees and other detailed elements extremely mushy, vlog a total disaster at the very low bitrate, tons and tons of moire and very bad rolling shutter.
Even though I do like shooting with drones a lot, I decided to stop until some other drone with better video capability would be on the market.
So at the moment I am seriously thinking of upgrading to the Phantom 4 Pro, which seems to be a definite improvement.
What are your experiences with the P 4 Pro?
Is it just a little bit better, or totally another planet?

I forgot to say that the narrower angle of view (20mm equivalent vs 24mm) is also something I am very interested in

I am exceedingly familiar with mushy DJI footage (Inspire 1, X5, X5R, Z3,Mavic) ... ordered a P4P last night. Looks really freaking good. The Mavic "can" look good in the right light but you have to not challenge the camera too much.

@Mizamook.
Please give us your impressions on the P4P as soon as you get it

If Mark O'Connell approves, I'd say I'm gonna be pretty happy when that thing shows up. And I'm not being sarcastic or snarky in any way.

Dropped frames?

I bought the P4P a week ago. So far I am loving it. The video quality is definitely a big upgrade from the P4 (although it is still nothing to rave about). I think it is worth the upgrade.

I've had the P4Pro for a few weeks (coming from a P4) and so far I'm not as impressed as I thought I would be. Still had some mushiness in vegetation detail/tree tops but need to do more shooting/testing different settings.
