Thanks to the kindness of a friend who has sold me her One (for a reasonable used device price instead of the crazy prices I've seen on Ebay and Amazon), it looks like I'll be staying with Fitbit for a bit longer (although I am getting my competitor product tomorrow and will be running them side by side, so we will see what happens there). Anyway, I am being notified now of the 6.64 Firmware update. I don't recall doing this on my old device, but maybe I did and was just lucky because I didn't have the same problems I see a lot of people were having. So, here's my question, do I do the firmware update and risk having some of the problems others had when they updated, or do I not touch this precious One and hope that it will last me until Fitbit releases or I find a viable replacement?

That's quite an old update now and has been well tested. The release notes at https://help.fitbit.com/articles/en_US/Help_article/1372/ suggest that this update includes a "critical security update". For that reason alone I think it's worth doing the update.
