I do not have both and only have the subcompact model.
If your current PX4 is ideal and you are enjoying it, I would say getting the subcompact may not be worth it. Unless you are short like me
Work had me with a Glock 19 (similar size to PX4 compact), so I carried it all the time just to make things easier. When I retired I ditched the Glock and went back to my PX4 subcompact. I was glad to be back with the smaller pistol, but I'm only 5'7"
I never had a problem concealing the G19, but my subcompact is even better. The sight radius is smaller and that's my only complaint. I have an Alien Gear tuck holster with a subcompact shell and can carry it on a 19 hour road trip with no discomfort.
If someone local to you has a subcompact, maybe try it out first and see if it works for you.
