The way screenshots work now is feature enough alone.
The changes to control centre even more so.

What I mean't was that there's nothing so important in iOS 11 that it's worth sacrificing stability and battery life for.

Hmm can't say I've found anything to be unstable.
And battery life, if worse isn't such that it's really measurable.
I would jump as soon as I can if I was still stuck on 10.

Some people like to take non-existent or extremely minor issues and turn them into nuclear bombs
I've had apps crash q few times and battery life is around two hours less than before the update. If you are on iOS 10 and you have no issues, why jump now when you can wait for the first point release that normally fixes all the bugs found in the GM/public release? If you have to be on the bleeding edge, then upgrade but part of being there is to accept the risks that go with it.
You know this which is why I find it strange that you see things completely differently.

Some people also like to ignore issues just to be on the latest version.

How do you ignore a non-existent issue, some people are just too precious and just have to find something to complain about, it gives them some direction in life, I suppose
.
Battery life isn't the best, went from 20% to 3% with one Clash Royale game with nothing else running (iPhone 7). Also some games have stuttering in them where they used to be locked at 60fps.
So they probably just need to be updated.
Anyways, ARkit and CoreML is fun. Using OpenCV you can identify objects and then float their description in the air. Will have other apps in the app store for IOS 11 launch.

It’s ultimately everyone’s own choice.
I’ve been on it since the very first dev beta on my primary phone and can hardly say it’s been near any kind of disaster for me.
If you want to wait then by all means wait. For the vast majority of people the issues are quite minor to non existent.
There are enough things here to have changed my habits and muscle memory already that going back to iOS 10 would see me struggling. If you never upgraded in the first place you wouldn’t know what you are missing.

So my two cents worth about the iOS11 GM since I installed it last week.
First off, my battery life isn’t so good on my iPhone 7 anymore, this might be related to the other problem I am having; my phone is getting really hot and it’s heating up fast without any intensive work on it. I hate having a phone that gets so hot as I never know what damage is happening in the background... really hope this is fixed.
Then, I’m sure this is a bug, in the “notification center” when you have a few notifications from today, there is no more a x at the top that you can 3D Touch on to clear all? This is really frustrating, if you have notifications from much earlier that day then only does the x appear.

Battery life was pretty bad for the first day or two but it's definitely settled down now to ios 10 levels. Probably background tasks taking their toll on the battery. Altogether a worthy succession to iOS10 for my iPhone 6 with plenty of little tweaks, like adding seconds to the countdown timer, to keep me happy.
It is normally 7PM.

If your phone is getting hot like that it usually points to a rogue app messing about, last time I heard of people having that issue it was down to the Facebook app. Check in Settings - Battery and see if any apps are showing higher than expected battery use.
I see FaceBook has used 41%, compared to the others Apps that are between 10% and 15%. Strange since I don't use Facebook Often.

Facebook has a reputation for running in the background and consuming power and data, try restricting background use and see if it helps.
Background App refresh is off for all my Apps.
