I've been wanting this gun for a long time now and finally got it yesterday. I ordered thru Gallery of Guns and picked it up at Federal Firearms.
I haven't fired it yet, hopefully I'll get to Friday.
BUT, I was a little disappointed in the finish quality of the polymer frame. Nothing that can't be corrected, but not what I expected from Beretta. Lots of sharp edges and flashing that I had to scrape off. I guess with orders out the wahzoo, everyone is cutting corners. I noticed a little bit of friction in the trigger before it fires. I'm not sure if that is in the design or a flaw.
I'll post more after I get a chance to shoot it.

Does anyone out there own a PX4. I have some concerns about the frame and would like to compare notes.

Beretta is apparently having problems with their molding process for polymer frames for the PX4. I had to send one back to Davidson's due to very poor quality, voids in the area where the barrel rotates. I got the second one and at first I thought they sent me the same gun again. VERY disappointed in Beretta. That one is going back to Davidson's too.
Chris at Federal Firearms was extremely helpful. I actually ended up buying one from his inventory.
OK, so I'll shoot it Friday and then post the results.

I finally got to shoot it on Friday. I only had time for about 30 rounds though because I wanted to practice with my carry gun too.
So I didn't get enough shots to give any useful info, other than it functioned well, recoil was snappy but manageable. I liked the trigger, double and single action. More to follow, soon I hope.

I now have 250 rounds through this gun. I was having problems shooting low and left, but not consistently. I put the largest grip on it this morning and fired 50 rounds. Adjusted my grip a bit and finally got some consistent groups.
No malfunctions to date, finally good groups. I think I like it. I don't think it's going to be my CC gun during the warm months, but maybe with a jacket on I'll give it a try.
