Dewalt is launching a new 20V Max 10″ cordless miter saw, model DCS714, alongside their also-new 12″ slider.
The new Dewalt DCS714 is advertised as being the brand’s “most powerful 20V Max compact miter saw,” which isn’t really saying much as their smaller 7-1/4″ saw launched a decade ago.
The DCS714 is Dewalt’s first 20V Max 10″ cordless miter saw, and I believe the first 10″ cordless miter saw they’ve launched in the USA.

Features include regenerative braking technology to help stretch its battery-powered runtime.
Dewalt has not yet released detailed specs, such as the saw’s motor speed, maximum cutting capacity, miter and bevel angle ranges, weight, or pricing.
Dewalt also hasn’t shared official pricing details, which is prudent given the dynamic tariff environment right now. One retailer has the tool-only DCS714B listed at $399, but that could change.
ETA: May 2025

Discussion
As a cordless non-sliding 10″ miter saw, I expect for the new DCS714 to be considerably lighter and easier to move around than the new 12″ slider, DCS785.

It doesn’t look to have XR branding, but the saw’s labeling does say the saw is equipped with a brushless motor.
Dewalt says that this is their first 10″ miter saw that’s compatible with “the entire range of 20V Max and FlexVolt batteries,” but you’ll probably want to stick with their higher capacity and more powerful battery sizes and styles.
They also say that the saw can capture “up to 97% of dust during use,” which sounds optimistic.
I’m curious about this model’s cutting capacity and how it compares to that of their brushed motor 7-1/4″ slider from a decade back. Hopefully more info will be forthcoming.

“Dewalt has not yet released detailed specs, such as the saw’s motor speed, maximum cutting capacity, miter and bevel angle ranges, weight, or pricing.”
They have.
Motor speed – 4900 RPM
Weight – 34 lbs
50 ° miter left and right
49º bevel left and right
0 ° miter max width – 6″ (2.85″ height)
45 ° miter max width – 4.25″ (2.85″ height)
45 ° bevel left max width – 6″ (1.6″ height)
45 ° bevel right max width – 6″ (1″ height)
Vertical capacity baseboard against fence/nested crown – 5.25″
Bare tool – $399
WW1 kit – $579
“I’m curious about this model’s cutting capacity and how it compares to that of their brushed motor 7-1/4″ slider from a decade back”
It’s less for nominal lumber, but greater for vertical baseboard/nested crown.

Thanks!
The press materials don’t have any of this, and there are no product pages up on their own website or at authorized retailers. I don’t have access to seller resources that haven’t been published yet.
Big Richard
And that’s why you have Big Richard Tools.
Stuart
Glad to have you! =)

Back in the old days, 90s to early 2000s, Dewalt had an 8-1/2″ slider that was made in Italy. If they would replicate that saw in a 20v format, I would buy that in a heartbeat.

If they sold all the Japanese made Makitas here in the US most of these would barely get a look in.

Probably a really great saw.
anthony watts
yes, i have this saw still, dw712 with speed control.
it also came cordless, great saw
William
I have the 7-1/4″ version and it’s great. I initially bought it for quick punchout projects like shoe moulding or doing a quick cross cut. Now I really wish that saw had bigger capacity for cutting nested crown. This could be a great solution for me as I typically leave the saw secured in my box truck to cut in the truck. This saw looks like it would fit our needs well for crown.

Finally a 10″ miter from Dewalt. I would like to see a 10″ slider someday before I’m buying though.

Do framers use miter saws a lot? Material will be big and heavy to bring to the saw…with must also be big to accommodate. I assume framers use circular saw and bring the saw to the material more.

Framers no not normally, they use the big circular saws. I do set the miter up occasionally when I have the right help as it’s cleaner cuts quickly, or if you’re cutting a bunch at same length you can make a jig for.
but at the same time this would be a hard sell for me. if I’m taking the time to set up the big saw I’d most likely buy the 12″ and just have a saw that can cut everything.
I have the 7¼” and it’s great for smaller stuff, wood trim or even metal molding. This one being a non slider and only being able to but slightly larger crown is a small niche between the 7¼” working or needing the 12″ slider.

Skilsaws w/worm drive are mostly what I see. Most still on cords too. A few have Makita worm cordless Hypoid. But framers use circular saws. Finish carpenters now, they will have several miters saws, or atleast a job saw on stand for stock.
A reno worker I know loves his 7 1/4″ cordless Dewalt. I’ve used it but brought my own blade for fine cuts of moulding/shoe/base. Cuts most what I do except the big base moulding. Most intricate crown are several pieces.
Wishing for a 35lb-40lb 10″ slider with regen braking would be wonderful replacement to a 7 1/4″ or 12″.
Nathan
Interesting. I have a corded 10 now so I’m not interested in getting another 10 but I do like most of the design of this
Roger
Happy, but disappointed that it’s not a slider.
6″ @90 VS the 18V Ridgid 7-1/4s 8″@90
Crossing my fingers for a 7-1/4 BL update.

How is it that this thing has a miter detent override, but the 12” 20V and 60V saws do not???
I love the 10” saws, I’ll likely get this one. In situations where I’m outside and have no power or would need to run a bunch of cords I love grabbing a cordless miter saw, but often times the 12” is unnecessary and too big, and the 7 1/4” saw is a pain to use, I just don’t like it much. This would be perfect.
They do need a 10” slider though. The DW717 was a perfect saw. Unfortunately every DIYer thinks they need a massive 12” saw for cutting 1x2s and so it went out of production because not many were sold.
Tom
Just update the 7 1/4” slider already
Meggie
I have the corded 10″ miter saw. I love the accuracy of it for woodworking, and being a non-slider the dust collection is actually pretty good. The only thing lacking for me is that I wish it had a faster blade break. I also added a soft start module to mine.
It looks like they made several improvements to the dust collection port on this new cordless model, which is awesome.
Nathan Williams
Yes this more than likely would be a perfect All Around Saw to be used, for just about any project you would need it for. Would love to see this song come out. And be sold for a good deal.
