Update ipad air 2 to ios 11?

[Lucamassaro]

As the title says, should I update my iPad air 2 from ios 10.3.3 to ios 11.4? I'm always really sceptical about updating an older device to a newer firmware as i'm afraid the performance could be worse. Thanks in advance!

Here you have some opinions about staying versus updating.

There was no difference in performance when I upgraded

Hard to say as I can’t remember what it was like on iOS 10, but 11 sucks. 11.4 is the best it’s been, and if you don’t need the features of 11, I’d wait to see if 12 fixes performance like Apple claims.

Been on 11 since it came out, now on 11.4, never seen any problems.

I’m using an Air first gen with zero issues.

Unless there are some 32-bit apps on your iPad you want to keep, go for it.

No issues on mine running 11.4.
