Default Best drill bits to buy?

I would like to third this statement.

Good american drill bits aggressively remove materials, and tend
to get less hot and hold the edge when heated.

Cheap Chinese drill bits overheat, dull and do not work nearly as
well. Worst case is they overheat so much that they leave a part of
themselves on material, after which you can only remove that with a
carbide drill.
