I'm about to buy another drill driver, save on messing about swapping

Currently have a Screwfix LiIon Titan, sub £50
I find it OK bar a few minor issues
It's not well balanced, put it down on the battery and it will often
topple, sick of leaving pozi shaped dints in stuff.
And where a lot of torque is required it will just give up and die.

Are the more expensive,branded stuff any/much better?

It may be partly a function of the size and weight of the battery, but I
have always found my 18V Makita stuff to be very stable on its base
(unless you have something very heavy like a large hole saw in the
chuck). My 18.8V Makita kit however is not designed to stand on its base
at all - so you have to pout them down on their sides.

Make that 10.8V
