Another static priced item that uses a smaller than usual blade. Smaller blade yields hotter cuts that dulls the blade down faster. I don't expect that this is used often though since it is just 12V, that you must already own the battery for; or purchase separately.
If you will use this every day for framing or sheathing get a 6-1/2 or even a 7-1/4 in saw. But for very occasional use the 5-3/8 is perfect. I am an HVAC contractor and don't need a saw for every job so this one suits me fine, especially considering I am all 12V in toolbag and van. (Smaller) size matters!
Finally the XR circular saw was a really great deal just recently. I watched some videos of what they consider to be their top of the line circular saw and was less than impressed. Not even be able to rip and 2x6 without stalling. I'll stick with me Makita corded. Don't get me wrong I'm sure it has its uses like cutting 2x4 to length. I can't imagine how weak this one would be.

I hear you. I use a 4 1/2 inch all of the time for cutting down plywood and MDF.
