Okay, tbh, the voice quality of Hatsune Miku NT Ver. 2 (official release version) does improve SIGNIFICANTLY compared to the previous early release version of NT Ver. 2. I am not sure if the current demos show similar voice quality compared to her Vocaloid 2 release, but I feel like it is getting there already. (I will appreciate if someone here could compare the raw voice without tuning for all of Miku's voicebanks from V2 to NT version 2)（*＾-＾*）

But then, when we compare the current release to her V4X version, I still feel like the voice quality of Hatsune Miku NT still needs to be further polished or improved. I am not sure if the "muffledness" or "buzziness" that I still could hear from the vocal itself derived from either the Piapro NT engine or the voicebank itself, so CFM still needs to investigate further whether there is any algorithm or code causing it.

translation of the official Sonicwire blog post:
Hatsune Miku NT (Ver.2) , which has previously been released as an Early Access (beta) version , has been released as a major update that makes it the official version today, Tuesday, March 18, 2025.
*A demo version that can be used for 39 days is also released at the same time.
It is equipped with a newly adopted singing voice synthesis engine (in-house development code: M9) and three new voice libraries: Original, Dark, and Whisper, tuned for the latest "Piapro Studio NT2."
The newly installed "Automatic Control" function in the vocal editor "Piapro Studio NT2" automatically adjusts multiple parameters such as multiple pitch curve models, vibrato, and voice color by simply selecting your preferred "singing style" and "nuance" from pre-prepared items, and suggests the singing nuance according to your instructions.
We have also prepared a demo phrase video in which we have simply entered notes and lyrics and applied "Automatic Control".
We hope you enjoy "Hatsune Miku NT (Ver.2)," which now allows you to recreate a wide variety of expressions with just one click .
In addition, to coincide with the release of this major update, we have prepared a trial version of the voice library "Original++" for "Hatsune Miku NT (Ver.2)" that you can try out for 39 days. Please take this opportunity to try it out.
From Hatsune Miku NT Producer Sasaki
Today, we are releasing "Hatsune Miku NT (Ver.2)".
The highlight of the update is the voice that sounds like Hatsune Miku thanks to the revamped and improved engine, and the "Automatic Control" mechanism that allows you to add tuning (pitch movement and vocal expression) to the lyrics and melody you input. Tuning can be finely edited according to each user's image. The function allows you to add pitch and edit the intonation of each note, and there are now many different combinations of voice tone and effects. Please try to create your own Miku singing voice.
A demo version that can be used for 39 days has also been released at the same time, so if you're interested, we encourage you to give it a try.
We apologize for the inconvenience caused by the slowdown in updates at one point, but we will continue to provide updates and releases for the NT Engine.
Thank you for your continued support.

Oh, I really like the lower tones on Demo Phrase F! NT2 still doesn't sound as good as V4X, but it is a huge improvement over NT1 so far.
Oh, I actually like this tone so much more already. She's... buzzy/noisy, but still. Much improved. I'm glad to hear it! I hope people pick her up. If I have free time sometime, I may get the trial :>

Yamaha has retweeted Crypton with an additional confirmation that Miku V6 is nearly finished. 
from wat's tweet:
so it seems like Crypton and Yamaha have solved the tuning issues of some months ago, now probably they'll do internal testing with feedback of some Vocaloid producers. It'll take some time, maybe they'll target a release around August? Miku V6 will also be an important starting base for Rin, Len, Luka, Meiko and Kaito V6 (last year presentation made it clear that they are working on both NT2 and V6),so there are exciting times ahead
