The second one looks the better set. The hammer drill has probably better specs - hence the handle.
The first set might be newer on the market - or because they are brusless indicated by BL on the case.

I have to go with Milwaukee too! I owned a couple of drills in the last couple of years, but I could not recommend this kit enough, it's by far the best. The impact driver is fantastic, with different torque settings, plus, the combo drill is the most powerful I have ever used. Yeah, it is little over $500, but it is well worth your money.

A bit of an update. I ended up with a Dewalt set of two (2) cordless drills, and am suitably impressed.
Whilst I have only had them for circa 6 months, and they are only 2 Amp batteries, I have only charged the batteries once in that time despite using them to demolish a 100 m2 dwelling, substantial mezzanine floor etc. The battery is still strong, which is a change from the previous Makita.
Ergonomically it feels good, and overall I am a very happy chappy.
Thanks for all the advice.

Glad you followed my advice ( post #3) he he he..
My son, a tradie who does a lot of roofing swears by his Dewalt tools.
And in an unrelated matter, I like my Dewalt 735 thicknesser, even though it is extremely loud and the blades expensive to replace, and cannot be resharpenedregards,
