Have you ever upgraded a mobile device just to find that there was a larger issue with the newest version that what you were trying to upgrade away from? It seems like in the recent few weeks there have been many issues with upgrading devices, uncovering more problems with the devices than there previously were. It seems like on a weekly basis there are updates and new features released to fix previous versions that were released only a few weeks before.
With all of these problems it is getting to the point that I do not want to upgrade my devices immediately anymore. There will always be problems with updating a devices to a newer major release version, but it seems like that issue is amplified many times over when upgrading from one version to another recently. With issues and bugs like these it makes it more difficult to stay at the leading edge of technology. There are constantly issues which need to be worked through and respond to which take time for developers to fix and release to the public. Many people are now recommending the public to wait until the first service pack has been released to adopt the newest technology because many of the major issues with the device have been repaired and work better than they did when the device was first released. The first service pack release is a major increase in the functionality of the devices and the security which has been implemented into the device. This is why many people have begun to say that it is better to wait until fixes have been released to help mediate the zero day issues with a product.
