A lot can go wrong while testing pre-release software and there's a good chance the Android Pie beta's issues will force you to drop your device back down to official, stable software. And if that happens, you'll be forced to data wipe your phone.

If you don't have time to deal with any of this, you'll want to avoid the Android Pie beta and stay put on official software.
