Powerful, fast. Wobbling chuck

I compared this year to Milwaukee 0824-20 and it is much faster and more powerful than Milwaukee. Makita took 39 seconds to drill a 1 / 2 inch hole in the 4-inch concrete blocks (not hollow). Milwaukee did the work of 52 sec.
Both batteries 5 holes drilled and died. Milwaukee is super heavy makita very light, but for this reason, the Milwaukee feel better when drilling, more compact, less vibration. Also on the Jacob chuck makita was somewhat wavering.
(Please send your comments on how to solve or improve), the plateau of Milwaukee has been very stable.

For the weight, speed, power I will go with Makita. Feeling Milwaukee.
