GCM18V-12SDN vs DCS781B

Bosch GCM18V-12SDN vs DEWALT DCS781B. Of the 4 figures both makers publish, 2 differ: voltage and weight. One is worded too differently to set side by side: included. Both are miter saws with the same blade diameter: blade diameter 12" on the GCM18V-12SDN, 12.0-in on the DCS781B, in their makers' figures.

Cited for one of the pair: only Bosch's cited pages give bevel capacity, miter capacity and crosscut capacity; only DEWALT's cited pages give motor, arbor, speed and warranty. The other maker may publish the figure elsewhere; ask it rather than assume the GCM18V-12SDN and DCS781B match there.
