As long as you're on wifi and have at least 50% battery, you should be fine updating wirelessly. I've only had to plug in once that I can remember for an update after wireless updating became available. At that time, I got a message telling me to update.

And I think from memory, Apple also requires it to be plugged into a charger OR have more than 50% power available.

Question: After I got it home I was going to update to iOS 11 and it keeps telling me there was an error in trying to update. As I said I just got it home and out of the box about 2 hours ago. Should I wait for a bit before trying this? Just curious...

Hopefully you are trying to do the update over Wifi.
It is over 1 GB, and Apple *requires* a Wifi connection for updates.
