Changed all my tools to Bosch about 5 years ago, not one has ever let me down, I got the 5.8 joules Sds plus, the most powerful one I could find, brilliant tool

Thanks for the Bosch review. All my Bosch tools have held up really well. But its good to see them finally catch up with the others when it comes to power. Now they need to make a stronger Freak impact driver.

I have the older 125 version of this drill. Doesn't have Bluetooth or levelling options but I'm well impressed with it.i sometimes use it for mixing tile adhesive and grout, mostly grout and it works perfectly.

I got this drill, i use the angle settings to drill holes in roofs for vent pipes for drains

Great I've been waiting to see this drill. Bosch is finally stepping up in the power game. Quality has always been there just lacking in power in some cases.

i have been using Bosch tools for 20+ years now. my 1st drill still works but has become my wife's house drill. they just fit my hand better. when you are working with a tool all day that matters more than the specs. the speed and power matter more to the boss as he needs more screws per hour. i need to be able to grip my steering wheel at the end of the day. i went all in on the 24V system and they still work great. the miter saw is easy to take to a job site.

As a daily user of both Bosch and Milwaukee, I'm happy to see Bosch stepping up this year.

Great review!!!

I would not mind the extra weight of that Bosch drill. It tells me that quality is most likely involved. Perhaps strong metal gears and a strong heavy duty metal chuck. As an 18 volt tool, the Bosch shows how well it does up against a quality 40V Makita. While I normally stick to my beloved Makita platform, I do own some quality Bosch 240V tools and I have no complaints. I enjoyed the Bosch review. Happy to see more.

A lot of people like to dog on Makita for being slow to release products to the US market, Bosch treats it like an Olympic sport.

I really enjoy your videos. Not in the market for a new Hammer but I just love watching your video.

Do you want to test the gsr18v-60fc? It has an sds attachment, right angle attachment, an excentric attachment and the regular chuck, you can also put a 1/4bit in when there's no attachment on it like an impact driver, just search it up you'll see what I mean

[fuloplehel]

Great review and testing. I just bought this bosch gsr 18v-150C, I also have the older gsr 18V-110C for more than 5 years. But this new one is more powerful but also heavier. I like the angle detection function. At some point in this video I saw smoke coming out from the bosch, when you tested with that 12mm screw. Did the temperature protection do it's job? Any warning or red light on the interface.? My Bosch angle grinder use a similar hmi and if I push too hard the warning light is blinking red.
Or maybe just some oil or something else was evaporating. It happens when you abuse a new tool.

I don’t mind my super powerhouse drill being a bit heavier as long as it has lots of performance and extreme durability. I think the race to make super high torque cordless drills as microscopic has come at the expense of longevity. I used to have a gen 2 Milwaukee fuel which I burned out replaced it with a brushed hilti which is smooth as silk and got 4 speeds and tons of power.

[rhyslf]

My Bosch gear has been excellent for me, easily holds its own against the Teal and Red, just wish their range was bigger!

[frans_d]

Thank you for your excellent review. One thing I did get from this is that the battery voltage has a little relevance to the tools performance. I suppose a watt is a watt regardless of the voltage. This brings me to the point. I have made an extensive investment in the Makita 18V platform and feel that Makita is no longer supporting this platform. Their battery technology has remained static for the last few years only providing a maximum capacity of a heavy 6.0Ah battery while their 40V platform have 8.0 Ah battery, that would equate to 16.0 Ah if it was on 18V platform. I think it is time to switch, Bosch is looking good.

[WATCHING-]

The indicator on the procore batteries is very disappointing. I hope they find a solution.

[docrofo]

I’m looking to make the switch to Bosch for the 18v platform. I have the Milwaukee 12v right now, but I bought the Bosch freak to carry on my semi truck for work. It has done great, so I’m looking at this drill

[JT-pckp]

Nice review. Nice new features on the Bosch. How's the chuck runout? Does it spin and drive true? I've had Bosch drills in the past and that seems to be a fault they had that my Makitas never did.

[masturone]

Instead if bluetooth module how about a slot in handle to hide air tag

[Wildantor]

I remember entering this competition as well! Congrats!
