I have a iPhone 4S - 16GB with IOS 7.1.1. When IOS 8.0 was released there were some concerns. Several bloggers suggested to hold off on updating. Since then, there have been a couple of updates. It's now IOS 8.1. So is it finally advisable to update older devices like a 16GB iPhone 4S? "Is it safe to come out?" Thanks
