Smoke and mirrors? It's interesting that they claim the new saw is 35% more powerful than the 7 year old brushed GenX5 saw, but make no mention of any power improvement over the Octane. Ridgid claims the Octane saw is 30% more powerful than the same GenX5. So looks like the new saw is about 5% more powerful than the Octane, although somewhat strangely the new saw has lower RPM's than the Octane at 5400 vs 5600. . A couple reviewers on the HD website say they have both the Octane and the R8657 and claim there is no power difference. I have the Octane and don't notice any shoe flex.
Do the tool hack with their ($249) drill combo w/free gift. Choose the new released circular saw at ($179) and the price comes down to ($104). Just return the combo kit in store. Basically paying the same price as this but with the new upgrades!
