As long as Apple continues to sign iOS 8.4.1 firmware files, you can enjoy the freedom of restoring this older version if you do not like iOS 9. You won't be able to do so once Apple closes the firmware windows, as it recently did for the older iOS 8.4.

If, by mistake, you perform a downgrade to a firmware which Apple no longer offers, you get an error message saying: "The device isn't eligible for the requested build."

To avoid this problem, there are two methods of performing the downgrade: one via iTunes and the other by using iOS 8.4.1 ipsw firmware. While the second method is quick enough, the first one is usually recommended, even though it is time-consuming, observes iPhone Hacks. You can use either of the methods depending on your convenience. It is important to create a backup of all your personal data before you perform the downgrade. IBTimes UK will not be held liable for any damage that occurs during the process.
