FWIW I love this thing for all types of installs and light drilling. you hold it like a drywall screw gun and it has some strong magnets on the front to hold your bits as you're working. Pretty well thought out, has a clutch avoid damaging anything, and those specialty attachments make getting into tight spots a lot easier when you need to.
Thanks OP! I picked one up for my Dad as well so he can join the bandwagon

And I designed a mount for the drill to hang from a shelf in my office/maker-space so I now have an "inside drill". Pretty awesome.
For most people and DIYers...the M12 will probably meet 95% of your needs. Versatility with the attachments is very nice.
The offset is a lifesaver when you need it and the standard drill chuck makes it versatile. When you're just doing some light-duty work the 1/4 hex slip-lock is lightweight and super easy to use.
The bag is actually pretty good, too. I took the charger out and I keep 1 2.5ah High Output battery (really nice upgrade), 1 small set of drill bits, 1 small set of screw bits, a spring punch, a small Kreg drill guide, and a small extractor set. Basically I just grab the bag whenever I need to drill anything and it's got everything I need.

In fact, all three brands (Milwaukee, Dewalt, and Bosch) 5 in 1 drivers are being compared in a way that is unfavorable across the board.
Drilling large holes in 2x material repeatedly is not what this tool is ever going to do in the real world, nor is driving 100's of screws in rows for zero purpose.
The testing methodology is broken.
Everything these specialty tools are made for is dumped into 1 category accounting for 10% of the overall score.
Weighing the tools effectiveness against 18V class tools with larger batteries in a few tests that only consider power and runtime is truly rigged in the larger tools favor.
Their "test" negates any advantages the smaller, more compact, more versatile tools bring to the table and dismisses the point of even buying a tool with attachments to begin with.
This tool is not your next drill or impact replacement and was never billed for that kind of work. Hence the "installation" part of the name. It is made for assembly work of furniture, cabinets, vanities, etc.
Are you assembling furniture in a production environment?
Installing your own DIY kitchen or bathroom?
Laying on your back under a sink trying to install something over your head in a cramped space while your arms burn from holding something in an awkward position just trying to get the threads lined up...?
That is what these tools are for.
