iOS 11 on iPhone 7

I currently have iOS 10.3.1 on a 256 GB iPhone 7 and I am wondering if I should upgrade to iOS 11. Many people say it considerably slowed down their phone and impacted their battery life which is a concern to me. So my question is should I upgrade to iOS 11? (I’m scared for my battery)

iPhone 7, iOS 10.3.1

Take your chances. IOS 11.2.1 killed my iPhone 7 and iPad 9.7 Pro. Both keep disconnecting from Wi-Fi nd the battery drains like a sieve. Time for me to go Samsung.
