Should I update iPhone to iOS 17.6.1 even with reported issues?

I’m considering updating my iPhone 14 Pro Max to iOS 17.6.1, but I’ve heard that some users are experiencing problems such as green or distorted displays after installing this update. Given that such issues could potentially affect the functionality of my device, I’m concerned about the risks involved. I want to ensure that the update will not cause significant problems with my phone’s display or overall performance. Should I proceed with the update, or would it be better to wait for further feedback or additional fixes from Apple? its 4.31 GB update

I have an iPhone 15 Pro Max and from my personal experience iOS 17.6.1 has been almost unbearable. I literally check for an update/restart daily because its so glitchy. IMO I’d wait until they release the next iOS update 🤷🏽‍♀️

What I did to get round this issue was to put my SIM card into another iPhone . Then transfered the number back onto my actual iPhone creating a eSIM now it works fine… hope that helps
