Cons of the 3DS:

- Bottom screen-frame scratching the upper screen
- Shorter battery life
- Smaller screens

Cons of the XL version:

- Worse loudspeaker quality
- Yellowish screens
- Might not fit in your pocket

Also, I'm pretty sure that the XL feels more comfortable to hold for longer periods.
