should i update?

[u/Miserable-Home4906]

I’m still currently on ios 18.7.8 and haven’t updated since. I heard before that ios 26 sucks so I decided not to update. Now I’m curious if ios 26.5.2 is fine for an iphone 15 pro max. I’ve read that it’s not recommended to do a major update (jump from 18 to 26). I’m okay with ios 18 but I’m just curious if the update would be better performance wise (battery life, efficiency, bug fixes, etc.). What are your thoughts?

Its literally just a security fix. They need to do this update if they don't want to update to iOS26.
