Makita’s New Drill Is Impressive… But There’s One Problem

Makita says this is their most powerful drill yet. The new GPH03 40V XGT 3-speed is marketed as offering the most torque on the market — and on paper, the numbers are impressive. But numbers don’t always tell the full story. In this video, I put the Makita GPH03 through real-world torque testing to see if it actually lives up to the claim. Does it truly outperform the competition? Or is there more going on behind the specs? We’ll cover: • Torque testing results • Speed 1 vs Speed 2 vs Speed 3 performance • How it compares to other high-torque drills • Where it excels • Where it surprised me This isn’t a Makita hate video — far from it. There’s a lot to like about this drill. But if you’re buying based on “most torque,” you’ll want to see this first. Let me know in the comments — does torque matter most to you, or do you look at overall performance? #Makita #MakitaXGT #GPH03 #ToolReview #PowerTools #DrillTest #torquetest
