DeWalt DCD793D1 Drill/Driver Kit vs DeWalt XTREME 12V MAX 5-in-1 Drill/Driver

Buy the DCD793D1 if you want one drill that handles full-size bits, deck screws and hole saws. Its 404 UWO and 1/2 in. chuck put it well above the 12V XTREME, which tops out at 250 W and a 3/8 in. chuck. The XTREME wins on reach and weight: under 5 in. long and 1.6 lbs bare, with right-angle, offset and hex attachments for tight spots. Owners rate the DCD793D1 higher (4.9 vs 4.6), and the 20V battery platform is the broader one.

• Choose the DeWalt 20V DCD793D1 if you need real torque for large bits, hole saws and heavy fastening, and want the 20V MAX battery line behind it.
• Choose the DeWalt XTREME 12V 5-in-1 if you work in cabinets, corners and overhead spaces where a short, light tool and right-angle attachment matter more than raw power.
