I have a Fitbit Ionic on 32.10.20. I did not update for a while because people were noticing problems. The latest version seems improving a lot of the problem I am still having. 

However I noticed that a few people ended up with a bricked device. 

What are the chances of my Fitbit Ionic  bricking with the update?

Hi @chris-bit.  I can understand your hesitation in updating as yes there have been a number of issues who have experienced problems.  There are though obviously a far greater number who update and have no problems whatsoever, they just rarely post in the forums!!

 

From my own personal experience I have had no issues at all with any updates and am currently on the beta version 27.70.3.0 which updated flawlessly in less than 15 minutes.  As to the chance of yours being bricked? impossible to say unfortunately, just ensure you are on Wi-Fi as that is by far the most reliable method and hopefully there should be no issues!
