Can it drill into concrete?

Only lightly. The hammer mode is meant for small holes in brick or block, not for cured concrete or repeated masonry work.

What comes in the box?

The kit includes the drill, 12V Max batteries, a charger and a carrying case. Check the listing for the exact battery count.

Does it use the same batteries as other Bosch 12V tools?

Yes. It runs on Bosch 12V Max batteries, so it shares packs with other tools in that line.

Is it good for driving screws?

Yes for light work. The 20 clutch settings let you set torque precisely, though it is not a replacement for a dedicated impact driver on long screws.

How does it compare with a 12V drill driver without hammer mode?

It adds masonry capability at a similar size and weight. If you never drill brick or block, a plain drill driver is simpler.

Our take on the Bosch 12V Max 3/8" Hammer Drill (PS130-2A)

The Bosch PS130-2A is a compact 12V Max cordless hammer drill driver with a 3/8-inch auto chuck and 20 clutch settings. It adds a hammer mode for light masonry work, which most 12V drill drivers in its class lack. The built-in LED and battery fuel gauge help in dark spaces and long jobs. It suits homeowners and light-duty users who want one small tool for drilling, driving and occasional brick or block.
