Depends what the recipient already has. For general DIY work I would
say that a hammer drill is more useful. I am a late comer to
cordless drills which I have bought in special offers. I have found
them convenient. My main concern is battery life when they are not
used very much.

That depends on what your walls are made of.

I have to use an SDS+, so a non-hammer cordless would be fine for other
jobs.

I'd agree with that. IMHO walls seem to come in two types only. Soft
enough to be drilled with a non SDS - in which case a decent bit in a non
hammer drill will work ok. And those so hard only an SDS will work.
