The verdictOur take

Milwaukee's sub-compact saw on the smaller M12 platform, and at 2.0kg bare the lightest Milwaukee saw here. On spec it manages 46mm of depth at 90° from a 140mm blade at 3850rpm, with a 0 to 50° bevel, and at the low end of the weight range it is genuinely one-handed for short cuts. Vibration is very low at 1.26 m/s². It is not a saw for ripping sheets all day, but for trimming, notching and quick cuts where carrying a full saw is overkill, the M12 size is the point. A natural second saw for an M12 user.
