    These are better than your last ones. All those things you list are better but could still be improved. Notice how your hips move up a little as the bar break the floor? That's because they should already be there.

    "Drop your belly between your thighs" will be helpful here. You want your hip angle to be as closed as possible while leaving your hips in the correct position. This ensures that hip extension can contribute the most to the movement. You are extending your back but it's not locked in full extension, and so is a little soft as the bar breaks the floor.
