Only small trees at this place so a few years off before I need another chain saw but it will probably be cordless. I currently have cordless drill/driver, impact driver, sawsall, light duty snow blower, leaf blower, string trimmer, tire inflator. All have exceeded my expectations and they are very quiet.

If your property is small enough that 120V works, I have to think that they will be far more powerful than a battery powered saw of the same age. Since I'm on almost 6 acres, running a cord wouldn't really work for 95% of what I'd need cut.
