I’m still on 16.1. I usually never take updates unless there’s a specific reason. Android forces updates whether you want them or not and I’m glad that Apple doesn’t. I’m very happy with my phone as it is. My iPad’s on 16.2.
It's obviously your choice, but I had my "biggest" problems with 16.1 and 16.2 (plus the short lived 16.1.1) iPhone 14 Pro Max purchased on launch day. There have been security issues you should be aware of.

I often wonder how much the so called security issues actually matter. I have never had a problem in all of the time I’ve had phones and most of my phones have been Android phones. But you all have convinced me and I will updated. Why tempt fate, right?

As far as problems…. I have not had a single issue with the version my phone is on. My phone has operated perfectly, at least as far as I can tell.

A “specific reason” to update is security updates which your devices are severely lacking if you’re still on iOS 16.1 and iPadOS 16.2.

Agreed.

I’m always amazed at the high minded “I never install updates unless necessary” folks, where necessary updates completely overlooks security issues.
