Don't Install If You Hate Dealing with Problems

If you only own one iPhone or iPad, and/or hate dealing with problems, you should probably avoid the iOS 11.1 beta. 

In its iOS Beta FAQ Apple "strongly" recommends installing iOS beta software on secondary devices rather than primary ones and here's why. 

The iOS 11.1 beta is pre-release software which means it's an unfinished product. As such, it's riddled with bugs and various issues. It could also brick your device. 

The current list of iOS 11.1 beta problems includes issues with first and third-party apps, random reboots, lag on older devices, abnormal battery drain, Wi-Fi issues, and more. The iOS 11.1 beta 5's fixed some issues, but its buggy as well.

The iOS 11.1 beta has the potential to do more than just annoy you. It could impact a trip, a business meeting, or your schoolwork. 

Most people should wait for the final version to roll out.
