What reviewers say
Sourced tester consensus for each — the "what people who used it think" layer, not just specs.
Milwaukee M18 FUEL 2732-20 7-1/4 in. Brushless Cordless Circular Saw
Only one whitelisted tester, Pro Tool Reviews, produced a hands-on review of this exact Milwaukee M18 Fuel 2732 saw. PTR scores it 9.4/10 and calls it one of the highest-performing cordless sidewinders available, winning a timed OSB rip test among more than a dozen competitors; heavy weight is the main tradeoff. (1 sourced review, 1 lab-tested.)
Praised: Top performer — won PTR's timed OSB rip test among more than a dozen cordless competitors; Natural, ergonomic handle with push-down trigger safety; Solid value with a full premium feature set (dust port, electric brake, magnesium shoe).
Flagged: One of the heaviest cordless options (12.6 lbs with the 12.0Ah battery); Upper blade guard obstructs the sightline on crosscuts and hangs slightly on bevels; Best full-depth cutting power only comes with the pricier XC6.0 Forge battery.
Skilsaw SPT77WML-01 15-Amp 7-1/4 in. Lightweight Magnesium Worm Drive Circular Saw
Only one whitelisted tester—Pro Tool Reviews—had accessible review prose for this exact model, naming the Skilsaw SPT77WML its best corded worm-drive circular saw for its 77-series 15-amp power and lightweight magnesium build. No other whitelisted source with accessible measurements was available, so no cross-source comparison exists. (1 sourced review.)
Praised: Named Pro Tool Reviews' best corded worm drive circular saw; 77-series 15-amp motor delivers ample wood-cutting power; All-magnesium housing (motor, shoe, gear housing) keeps it lightweight (~11.5 lb without blade) for a worm drive.
Flagged: Premium price positioning ($199, or $219 for twist-lock cord).
