Specifically the drills?

Bought me an auger bit and my ryobi struggles and kills the battery on just one hole. Figured it wasn't up to the task.

Looks like the Flex has good write ups and plenty of torque.

My 20V Dewalt drill will drill 6" holes for ice fishing all day long on one battery.

Yep, dang good drill. It's heavy but will run a 3 inch auger all day. I drilled about 30 holes and used about a quarter of the battery power.

Nah, the ryobi is only a hundred something torque. It's pretty weak and is mainly a screwdriver. It struggles to drill into brick for inch and half tapcons. I've had a good run with these ryobis as there cheap and I'm mainly driving screws with no serious drilling.
