In this video, I break down five of the best cordless drills on the market and focus on what actually matters: real-world drilling speed, driving performance, size/weight, and the features that keep your wrist safe when a bit binds up. I also included the Amazon links in the description so you can quickly check current pricing and pick what fits your budget range. I start with the Skil PWRCORE drill driver kit because it delivers a surprising amount of power for its size at a fraction of the price—my best budget pick. Then I move into the heavy hitters: the Flex 24V is a monster for raw power (it even kept chugging in cement), Makita’s flagship hammer drill brings serious torque in a compact head length, and DeWalt’s 20V MAX XR posted the fastest drilling times I recorded with great control options. Finally, Milwaukee’s 2904-20 is my best all-around choice when you factor in power, compact size, lighter weight, and smart safety features like auto-stop.
