    Of course, bad things can happen with any phone update on any OS.

    But I think the risks of anything going south is well worth the benefits. Especially considering starting from scratch can fix just about any update related issue.

    Are you kidding me!
    Win 8.1 is tailored to suit phone specifications.
    Update asap and enjoy it.

    Update and enjoy.
    As long as you don't do anything stupid (let the battery die, turn it off, throw it out a window or use it as a raft for your toy soldiers) it's 100% safe

    I never updated mine, a few friends who also own 520 did and said it became a lot slower =/
