Between the two
I believe the higher priced tool has a metal chuck,
TBH for fixing screws like wall plug size, drilling tile bits, mixing paint, the GSB180 is already more than enough..I usually run at 1-5 lowest setting to avoid overtorquing the screws too deep in the material (kitcab), driving into 1.75/2" wall plug maybe around setting no.5 (highest is 20) on low speed gear. The price diff is almost enough to buy another GSB180 solo unit

If you run this in screwdriver mode most of the time it is plentiful enough. Important to get impact rated screwdriver bit like the milwaukee shockwave 10 bucks per pc, less prone to snapping the screwdriver head off. Comes in shorty 65mm or 110mm length. For fixing shelves 110 easier. For tight spot 65mm minus off the 1in in chuck it makes for a shorter tool but its not very flexible for non head on (as in not aligned 90deg perfect angle) application.
The only time where the plastic chuck (still can buy replacement chuck head) may fail earlier when it is abused as a wannabe grinder (sideways movement polishing of the wall for socket backbox); or if you have hard concrete wall (brickwall is easier to go thru) and abuse this for weeks as an impact drill whereby a rotary hammer will do the job easier.Thanks for you input. The chuck part is something that I have no idea in what circumstances it would fail. I guess you're giving a perfect example that it could fail one day if I abuse the tools. Something that I should consider, metal chuck.

Normally the the with metal chuck has higher torque. If the price is not much different, then I'd go for higher torque.
I also tend to buy higher spec tool if I think the price difference is worth the the additional feature or spec which I may not need to use now. I bought lower power drill thinking I may not need higher power, but in the end I end up buying another one with higher power with hammer function. Then I bought a rotary hammer with ability to chisel as well. Then I bought cordless
I still found each one of them has own use for different situation and requirement.
In thins case I'd say I'd go for the GSB 18V-50 even if Rm100 extra.

I have no idea the price difference here but most of the time the price difference due to what the package provided like casing additional accessories. Need to ask the seller. The picture is just trick in business

I think the price difference probably not as much as I mentioned earlier. Probably was looking at different packages from different shop. I just found a shop that sells solo unit for both model, and the price difference is RM149. I guess I have to read more before I make my final decision. Have been thinking about buying a drill for almost 2 months already and end up buying Bosch Go 2 as for temporary usage.
Talking about my recent purchase Bosch Go 2 screw driver, Bosch sent me 20 x 25pcs screw bits as free gifts. I was having the shock of my life to see so much free gifts. I end up PMing them telling about their mistake and they sent someone to collect the extras. Could have bought a unit of GSB18v-50 + all accessories if I sell all the extras
