Marcrist ck850 akkumax is the best I've yet to use. The only negative is they are fragile, so they need to be used carefully.

For my cordless I use Marcrist CK750 Tile Blade Diamond 150 x 25.4mm. I also have a Premtool Turbo Fastline (115mm) after advice from the site sponsor. The premtool I have only used to test as the job is this weekend but it works very well and it will sit in my 18v grinder box. Thanks for the advice.
The largest disc I used to cut some 600x300 floor tiles (a small number) and its exceptional - a pleasure to use.
I also have the DW2000 but will be too large for my weekend job.

p.s. I am an not a professional Tile Trade person.

The Marcrist CK 750. This is a continuous blade that will give a nice clean cut on most tiles. It is better if you can cut wet but it can also be used dry.

Or if you can use a 115mm blade I would recommend the PREMTOOL Turbo Fastline blade. This is to be used dry and will give you a nice clean cut and should be a faster cut but is only available in 115mm.

This has given clean cuts on ceramic - havent used on anything else.

The Premtool, Marcrist 115 & 150mm I havent used long enough to know there durability. They are not expected to last as long as a wet saw disc.

Bought the m ck 750 in 115mm x22mm for my dewalt. Think my dewalt is a 4&1/2 inch grinder so hopefully itll fit. If not, looks like the guard will be coming off

It sounds Kevsalt is using this in his wet saw whereas your grinder will be dry. That was why I chose the Premtool. I dont know which dewalt grinder you have but 115mm fit in my cordless 18v (which is a 4.5) and also my hitachi corded (also a 4.5"). The dewalt guards will provide a small clearance to the 115mm disc.
I wouldn't want to use one cutting tiles with the guard removed personally.

I havent used the blade Impish has mentioned only the ones I've described and some lower cost circa £10 tile blades in the past. I struggled to find blade specifications for Marcrist but this may be helpful (Marcrist Product Catalogue 2015 - https://issuu.com/marcristdiamondtools/docs/955.9999.070uk_r1_marcrist_catalogu)
I dont know the difference between the ck850(T) and the CK850 Akkumax.
