I've stuck with 8.1.1 since I got my phone because the battery life was so good. Is there really any reason for me to bite the bullet and download 8.3? Will I notice my battery life take a dive? Or should I just stick with what I've got for as long as I can?
Got a tip for us?

Do you have any functionality issues, ie bugs you want or need rid of? I updated my 6+ every time an update became available because it was such a buggy device. My battery life on 8.1.1 was awesome and if the phone had no bugs, I would have stuck with that version of iOS8 without a doubt. To me 8.3 is light years better, but my battery life did take a hit gradually since 8.1.2
I used to get 12 hours of usage but now I scrape 10.
I'm not experiencing any bugs or anything. My usage is pretty light so I don't know if that has anything to do with it.
