The verdictOur take

The DTD157 is a 3-mode 18V LXT brushless driver rated at 140Nm, with an assist mode and a high 4100 impacts per minute for fast driving. It sits below the flagship DTD173 on torque but keeps brushless efficiency and mode control. We rate it a capable mid-range LXT choice; for more torque and a fourth stage, the DTD173 is the upgrade.
