The Ryobi ONE+ 18V 5-1/2 in. Circular Saw is a compact cordless trim saw that runs on the ONE+ battery platform shared with over 300 Ryobi tools. It spins at 4,700 RPM and cuts 1-11/16 in. deep at 90 degrees, with bevels up to 50 degrees. At 4.2 lb it is light enough for one-handed overhead and trim work. It is a homeowner and light-duty saw: smaller and less powerful than 6-1/2 in. and 7-1/4 in. cordless saws, but cheaper to get into and easy to carry. The kit includes a 2.0 Ah battery but no charger, so buyers already on ONE+ get the most from it.
