    Check out the Toque Test Channel on Torx drivers. The companies have different patterns for their heads with different advantages and disadvantages.

    Philips is bad. Pozi-Drive screw with Philips head is awful.

      Torx is undoubtedly a better screw head, but I have so many drivers, especially the smaller ones, that have snapped heads. It’s a manufacturing issue with the driver, not the screw head.

      But I guess my comment still stands, you can complain about torx, but you absolutely can’t compare it to how shit Philips is (including every variation and adaptation).
