This is the 4" Service model chamber in 9mm. As you can see it's too big for an EDC gun. Great for home defense and the occasional carry and target shooting. I've gone through at least 500 rounds and had a couple stovepipes and times when the slide did lock after the last round. I don't think this is unusual as I'm still getting to know this gun and could have limp wristed.
Pros: I really like the Grip Safety. I don't really see the importance of the Striker Status Indicator if you have the Chambered Round Indicator. The dual spring recoil rod ensures longevity and absorbs a lot of the recoil. The 3 dot sights are pretty easy to see in low light. The grip seems big at first, I have medium size hands, but it's really not. It's quite comfortable to hold. The XD is easy to field strip into 4 pieces with no tools. The XD has a metal trigger versus the plastic one on Glocks. The trigger is really smooth and pretty much feels perfect.
Neutral: Time will tell if the Melonite finish will hold.
Cons: The XD is little more bulky compared to similar guns. This is just personal preference really and the longer I own it the less I even notice or care.
I paid $400 and that included 2 x 16 round magazines and the XD gear (belt holster, dual magazine holder, ammo loader). The only thing I've used so far is the ammo loader. I think this is a great deal for what you can get. Springfield has a rebate now for 3 extra mags and a dual mag holder. So that's 5 magazines!!
