Is it safe to install public beta 11.2 on my iPhone X even tho I don't have access to a computer?

Is it safe for me to install iOS Public beta profile, and then install iOS 11.2 beta on my iPhone X? I don't have a computer anymore so I'm just wondering if there was any aspect that I would need a computer for before/during or after installation? Back when iOS 10 was the main one I had the iOS Public beta 11 installed on one of my iPhones and did it all on phone and never had an issue, but this time around I'm messing with alot more expensive device in the iPhone X, and don't want to void any warranties or have an unusable device if a computer were to be needed and I didnt know before hand.

iPhone X, iOS 11.1

No. If something goes wrong with the beta and you need to fix the iPhone you won't be able to without a computer.

What is the Apple Beta Software Program?

The Apple Beta Software Program lets users try out pre-release software. The feedback you provide on quality and usability helps us identify issues, fix them, and make Apple software even better. Please note that since the public beta software has not yet been commercially released by Apple, it may contain errors or inaccuracies and may not function as well as commercially released software. Be sure to back up your iOS device with iTunes and your Mac using Time Machine before installing beta software. Since Apple TV purchases and data are stored in the cloud, there’s no need to back up your Apple TV. Install the beta software only on non-production devices that are not business critical. We strongly recommend installing on a secondary system or device, or on a secondary partition on your Mac.
