Before now I shared with us a review of the newest iPhone devices that were released alongside the new iOS 11. See the reviews I made earlier of the iPhone 8, iPhone 8 Plus, and iPhone X. All of those devices come preinstalled with iOS 11 which makes this post not particularly useful for you.

How to Install iOS 11 on iPhone and iPad

Step 1: Turn on your device and navigate to "Settings". Click on "General" that is placed above do not disturb on the settings menu.

Step 2: From the "General" options, select "Software Update". Now an update to iOS 11 should come up and start downloading automatically, after which it would be installed on your device.

It is advisable you create a backup of your device on iCloud in order to be on a safe side, though this update wouldn't affect or uninstall your apps.

Your device would now be running flawlessly on the latest iOS 11 once the download and installation are completed. Do make sure you have sufficient data to download the update.
