I recently watched a side by side review of the Atomic vs XR. They are essentially IDENTICAL in looks and performance (neither has more plastic, or is any smaller/bigger than the other). The XR really only has 2 things that were different:

1- belt clip (the Atomic didn't even have holes in the handle to mount one)
2- 3-speed selector

I especially wanted the 3-speeds feature. However, if the Atomic came with a 2Ah battery (which I didn't realize, tbh), that is well worth considering. I bought the XR kit, but I HATE the crappy 1.5AH battery. It doesn't snap in snugly to a tool--it literally jiggles! I would almost rather have the Atomic with an REAL Dewalt battery, even if only 2Ah...

Otoh, I bought the kit for the tool--I considered everything else almost disposable (low end battery and charger, another bag, yadda yadda). So I guess I'm good.

Any opinions on the XR vs the atomic? Home depot has the atomic for the same price. The differences I can find are the XR is 20k opm (vs 18k), has a 3 speed selector (vs not pushing the trigger in the whole way) and a bag. But the atomic has a 2AH battery vs 1.5AH with the XR.

In addition to differences you mentioned I believe Atomic is comparatively compact too.

This type of tool excels at cutting things flush to a surface, especially in tight spaces. A recent example was when a contractor used one to cut the rusted bolt attaching my toilet to the floor during a remodel. You have to cut the bolt as low on the base as possible and no other power tool that I can think of would have worked.

Another common use is to cut door trim to fit new flooring without removing the trim.
Wow never thought about cutting bolts with this. I used a dremel which took forever.

I think I probably watched the same video review. Lol! I was leaning toward the better battery vs a clip hole and the 3 speed selector, but was worried there was something I was missing. 😁

Guess it depends on what you already have. I already have plenty of -real- Dewalt batteries (frankly, the 2Ah battery is almost as anemic as the 1.5), so the difference for me was "uuter crap" vs "almost utter crap". But, if you don't have plenty of batteries already (as evidenced by the mind-boggling popularity of the awful "$96 dollars for 2x2Ah battery and 1 free crappy tool" Dewalt offer currently on the FP) then maybe this is a deal-making difference. For me, even with the crappy battery, I am happier with gettomg the tool I wanted.

Thinking about getting this for my brother-in-law, but I'm not sure which DeWalt line of 20v tools he has (XR or another). Will all their 20v batteries work with this? since the included one isn't very big

yes. If he has Dewalt 20V Max tools (XR, Atomic, it doesn't matter) then he already has batteries for this.

We actually have and use both. The Atomic is also slimmer and not as bulky as the XR. Both have a variable speed trigger, but the 3 speed gearbox of the XR has a maximum in each gear that sometimes comes in handy. If running both at maximum, the 2,000 oscillation difference is not really noticeable.

I have this Oscillator. It's great but with the 2AH battery it really struggles to cut through things that my old corded Rockwell oscillator can slice like butter.
Really depends on the blade. You probably had a nicer carbide blade on your Rockwell
