The Milwaukee is the clear winner here for a number of reasons. It has a 1/2" all-metal chuck with mechanical clutch, is significantly shorter in length, is much more powerful, has a longer warranty, and is within the M12 lineup which has vastly more tools than DeWalt's 12v lineup. Those are major advantages. I'm sure DeWalt will catch up with their next model.

How can this channel be so small? Great content and the creator has such a nice personality… guess we will see +100k subs within a year.

Something I thought I’d never do, but sold my 8 year old brushed Makita 18V 7-tool set. Replaced it all with Milwaukee 12V Fuel. I was blown away that the M12 being half the size and weight had equal power or more over my old 18V set. Not just Milwaukee, but all brands came a long way in the last few years

I don’t understand why you don’t have more subscribers. Always good content on your channel.

Thank you for sharing and the tests... 🙏🏼😁

Love the video I just got into the 12v line I love Dewalt screwdriver so far one of my favorites

This video pretty much sold me on the gen 3 M12 set.

I have the 2nd gen Milwaukee and that Dewalt , happy with both , love the compact size . Thanks

Milwaukee is dragging their feet with the release of the new gen 3 m12 stuff here in Australia...so your videos inspired me to import some from the USA 😎

I used to be all ridgid, i just got the Milwaukee 2967-22 kit and I love it. I think I'm staying all red now.

Great video. I have the Gen 3 m18 kit & m12 screw driver and gen2 impact driver & m12 1/2 stubby . Really looking to pick up the new hammer drill to fill that empty spot. Just not a lot of things I feel the need for the m18. M12 line is just awesome. Super compact & it brings the beans!

Damn, m12 just obliterated the dewalt

Comes down to batteries, which brand you have. In my case both😵‍💫

You should try this again with the Milwaukee 5.0 high output. There's a definite increase in power of the 5amp over the 6.

I had both Dewalt and M12 3rd generation which I got as a gift and after trying the M12, it's no comparison, I sold my Dewalt.

Been pro Dewalt for a while now but recently got into milwaukee. I love my m12 surge and use it most of the time over my 9 year old dcf886. While my 886 is faster, it is only by a small bit and larger and heavier than the surge. I wouldn't mind the m12 hammer drill because yes the Dewalt electronic clutch is my least favorite feature of Dewalt drills and I wouldn't mind the smaller weight and size over my dcd795. Great video. Looking forward to what these companies come out with in the future, hopefully Dewalt with fix the clutches on their drills.

I just bought one ( thanks for the recommendation ) ! The size great ! I tend to use the 3 Ah in this little guy ! I really like it so far ! Very compact !

Nice vid!

Curious to know if running everything in speed two had more of an effect on the heat generated. More magnet friction at higher speeds

Great content👌🏻

great video bro

I think to do the larger / longer screws and drill bits is interesting, but not really the focus of this platform. The comfort and speed of smaller screws and drill bits seems what they were designed for and their best use scenario.

The heat issue seems to be the result of putting too much power in a small body. The more compact tools get, the balance of power to size is more of an issue. I’ve heard of Milwaukee M18, Flex, and even some Dewalt tools getting pretty hot when pushed hard.

There is a 5amp hour battery for Milwaukee now. I understand you probably don't have it because it is new but they do have one.

Love my M12 Surge, and the G3 M12 drill looks great, but Dewalt ergonomics are always superior and the performance is comparable--for real-world use, where differences of a second or two don't matter (unless those difs do matter at your job). If Dewallt had an 12v oil-impulse driver I would have way less M12 stuff, as Dewalt has a 12v equivalent for a lot of the core M12 tools, and some of the Xtreme tools are just better (circ saw, for example). Full disclosure: I have cordless and corded tools from all the major brands here in the US, but HPT and Deaalt are my main 20v and M12 and Bosch are my main 12v platforms. Every company makes good stuff. Anyway, nice video.

I started off the tool collection because of the m12 pact driver couple of years ago. Did not like their gen 2 drill. Tried the dewlt xtreme drill and a year later all my tools are dewlt xtreme. Except the m12 Gen impact driver and brushed 3/8 ratchet. I love it. Dewalt ergonomics and second to none. For me, power and speed is not everything. Precision is. If I need power, then there is m18 or 20v platforms. I am very satisfied with xtreme lineup so far.

That new M12 is very strong. But I'm loving the DeWalt 12V line. Cheaper, near the same strength, far more comfortable.

I like both brands but for these specifics xtreme vs M-12, I like the weight and grip of the dewalt hands down.

Should use the 5ah ho battery in the milwaukee

If you did this test with the M12 HO 5ah battery, the M12 drills numbers would have been even better! 12v tools are just awesome! Great video man.

I have the dewalt one, and there is one thing that annoys me completely!! And I am looking for another 12v tool to replace it just for that! Its the stopping. The dewalt drill does not stop immediately after you release the trigger, it does a 1/4 spin or so after you realease the trigger and it just makes me crazy. Feels like the old Ni/Cd tools that did not have electronic stop when you release the trigger and they would just go on untill physics made them stop.. What is your take on that issue?

Do the High output 5.0 on the m12 and test again. Curious how that plays.

I drill daredevil spade bit from bosch 1 1/2 and the m12 take it on speed 2 on 2x this is insane

When I first grabbed it, it's compact and light compared to 18v, but it's hard to adapt to the grip because I use it often. Now I bought a Makita 18v 173 impact. The grip is good for Asians.

Iv had the gen2 for years since it was first available I loved it. I just got the gen 3 and it's even better. The only thing I don't like is the handle. Don't get me wrong, you do get accustomed to it. But going from the Milwaukee to the DeWalt the dewalts handle is soon my h more comfortable

I hope you compare the impact drivers also.

how about the brand new Skil 12V compact drill? Is it any good? grip, chuck, speed, temperature?

Used to be a DeWalt guy but I’m tired of them shitting the bed. They came out with an amazing 1/2 impact high torque recently that I’d love to buy but what’s the point if every other tool is subpar.

I really want to try both but I can't decide because both are great tools! I like any tool if it does the job. I like your honest opinion! I this its said a hard days work is an awenest day work

Are you going to test the new SKILL 12and 20 Volt TOOLS

Does anyone think that the all metal chuck is a better grip though? The whole tool is plastic so I’m confused why people complain that DeWalt has a plastic over mold on the chuck. The paint wears off instantly on the metal and makes the tool look old and beat if that matters to you. On a good note: great comparison!

The milwaukee need a side handle and autostop would have been very very nice !!

For some strange reason, I now have the Milwaukee M12. Although not having used it to anything serious yet... just a few trigger tests, I can agree every single aspect in this video. The M12 feels more like 20V (or 18V) tool replacement rather than a 12V compact tool. Maybe I'm too spoiled with DeWALT 12V grips. But the trigger response hits the nail that this isn't really perfect for any delicate application. Yes, I assemble a PC with DeWALT 12Vs! But then again, comparing to any 20V drill, size advantage and being 1/2" metal chuck, this drill can replace any mid-tier (or sub-professional grade) drill easily. Especially the fact that those low-cost options usually come with cheaper, and larger motor, resulting a big chunk of a drill with sub-par performance. This 12V is not just a low tier sub drill for non-professionals but a main thing that can handle 'EVERYTHING' they need a drill.

Title should have said DeWalt loses lol 😂 no but I'd like to see if the 5.0 HO will fair again vs the DeWalt with both having 5ah batteries now

I dont really care which tool won cause I usually drill larger holes in speed 1 anyway. I dont want the kickback if it binds and I probably want to be more precise with the hole. When it comes to driving screws its impact all the way.

if posible compare both with Ridgid subcompact hammer drill

They are hammer drills, where are the concrete tests??? Good video.

Cool test. But how come no hammer drill test into concrete?

How good does the m12 work on Concrete.?

Milwaukee more torque Dewalt smother well said

The link does not show this tool - can you post the correct one?

I WOULD LOVE TO SEE MILWAUKEES FIRST EVER SET OF BATTERY STUFF BROUGHT BACK WITH THE NEW BATTERIES OF TODAY...IM TALKING ABOUT THE ONES IN THE EIGHTIES...I BET THEY WOULD BE BEASTS.JUST A THOUGHT.

The Milwaukee gen 2 was not enjoyable because of the poor control of the speed, I couldn’t drive delicate short screws because of the fast accelerating and not so controllable speed. How does the gen 3 compare to gen 2, is it better? I don’t buy tools only because they are powerful.

Team Red represent. Milwaukee put alot of torque into this drill they said so.

Some comparison of models from Dewalt and Milwaukee between US and EU market: - Dewalt in the US has 20V in EU 18V (yes are the same), in the US the torque(?) reading is UWO for the drills but in EU is given in Nm* ( which is easily convertible to Lbs-in) * it is always indicated in dewalt European website to every tool specs. As an example the dcd706 sold in EU has a torque indication of 57,5 Nm (= 509 Lbs-in) and has a metal chuck For Dewalt the model names are the same in the US and Europe* to one very recent single exeption: the latest dewalt dcd799 has here in Europe another name: dcd100Y (=Dewalt 100 years celebration) and is rated 68 Nm (602 lbs-in or 50 fbs-ft) * the dewalt tools sold in Europe, specially when it's the complete kit, the tstak is included within. - Unlike Dewalt, Milwaukee has all its models names different in the US and Europe, the 3404 is in EU under the name M12 FPD2 and if comes within a kit it is called M12 FDP2-602X (means with 2× 6Ah + Charger + carrying case) Examples: the 2555 is M12 FIWF12 (IW = Impact wrench, 12 = 1/2 Anvil) The 2962 sold in EU is under the following name: M18 FMTIW2F12 Why dewalt in the US are 20 V and in Europe 18V ? and we know that is in reality the same voltage ! Why Milwaukee for abolute identical models they have different names in different geographic area? Marketing reasons, geographically-dependant strategies?! For both brands: they are more expensive in EU than in the US! I have the dcd706 with a metalic chuck, didn't have the possibility to compare it to the milwaukee M12 But I have a reference point for comparison, I have at home its bigger brother the 999 and the 706 proved to be very powerful for its small size. I've got a chance to compare the 12V IWs of both of these two big brands: the dcf901 and the European 2555. They are both, despite their very compact size, excellent: I've loosen my car's lug nuts (22mm) tightened at 165 Nm (1460 Lbs-in/122 ft-lbs) within 3-4 seconds, without too much and annoying lengthy impacting: the 2555 is slightly faster but not worth considering, so I decided to keep the 901, it is cheaper and I have dewalt batteries, it doesn't take too much space to carry it all time in the car unlike the highly capable mid-torque dcf891 that I have at home

I got both brands Milwaukee and dewalt .every brand has there good and bad . These two are two top brands .just buy what ever u want .

There was no hammer drill test ??? No concrete drilling in the test

Milwaukee is my favorite

The M12 drill when using a mixing tool for cement really bogs down HARD and it has a strange slow delayed start up when you give it full speed..... I don't own any other drills at the moment so very annoyed. If you need to mix cement the M12 is not the tool. I was actually using a cheap Ryobi but I gave it to a friend who was moving house so I bought the M12 but very disappointed. Maybe Ill get a newer Ryobi to replace the M12.

Dewalt grip is a lot comfortable but milwaukee made its grip wide to fit a compact battery pack and remain compact

Subscribed.

I'm not bothered by the motor heat as long as the tool can take it. Being brushless it's probably not a big deal and you're doing torture tests. The big bits I'd run it in low gear anyway so I don't ruin the bits. I wouldn't go with DeWalt for 12V just because of the lack of form factor choices. I can usually do without the rectangular base of the bigger M12 battery, there's no choice with DeWalt. It's more like an 18-20V drill. IMO better off getting a compact 20V DeWalt with the pouch cell pack.

I was excited for the new M12 stuff but then sold it a week later and went back to my Dewalt Xtreme.

Too many channels shows off on long screws drilling. How about being different by cutting holes with 2 3/4 "- 3 " holesaw to wood and metal materials equivalent to real door for lock installation. Most drills struggle to such task. I hate to say it sometimes you have to make do with whatever you have at the site. It's to show pro line vs amateur toy line of tools.

I was a Dewalt guy threw and threw, except for the m12 line up is crushing every other brand out there. My 12v dewalt drill feels like a cheap Chinese tool compared to the gen 3 Milwaukee 12v fuel I just got. It beats the dewalt I have in every way. I’ve currently have every dewalt tool I own up for sale except for my 12v impact wrench, now that thing crushes every 12v and some 18v impact wrenches.

And thats not the high output battery.

Ive noticed Milwaukee is consistently higher temp over Dewalt tools. Seems they push their tools more, which wins these kinds of tests. But longevity almost surely takes a hit for peak performance.

Speed! Speed! Always the speed.... More speed is not good always. We are using Milwaukee tooks in house factory. Less than a year and throw away. Just dont understand this- best tool! Faster drill ever! Power tool must serve you many years.

Try the NEW M12 5Ah

The M12 ergonomics are a deal breaker. M18 is better. Why no concrete drilling for this hammer drill showdown?

With the m12 running so hot makes me feel like they are not going to last. All of the new drills and impact drivers are running hotter than the old ones and with their other mess with the impact Milwaukee . Staying clear of the new stuff .

I'd rather my drill not burn up than be faster!

Gen 3 vs gen 2

I like your tools but i have no money 2 buy...😢😢😢

What I don't like is that milwaukee has just gone down hill with there quality. The voltage to me isn't important as i feel that for certain applications you need a smaller tool. But one time milwaukee ruled the world. I would never buy one now due there quality control

and tested in concrete

those are drills... with a bs hammer option

Evet milwaukee %28 daha hızlı ama %25 daha fazla ısınıyor

A little bit pointless test. Such drills are good to make a delicate jobs. To force 'em to deal with such big bolts is strange, you will not fill the pleasure by working with the drill on the edge of their possibilities. And during that you didn't make the accuracy test. For your tests with the same or equal budget DW DCD771 would be MUCH better. I heard thar in the US is natural to have many instruments to make every type of jobs maximally better, but you're demonstrated how god these drills if you can have only one tool for all over objectives.

The m12 is far superior to the dewalt , I have both and you just can’t beat the m12

I feel milwaukees drill will slow down alot before it actually cuts off while dewalts drills slow down a tad and shutoff. I don't think it has anything to do with power as much as the design in the electronics.. I could be wrong though
