Hey guys, I'm new to Android and my tablet is my only Android device.

It's running 4.4.2 and I was wondering if there was benefit to upgrading to the latest version. Would I get any battery life benefits?

And this being a vendor device, they don't officially provide an update to 6.x so I think I would have to root it. Being an Android n00b:
* would I be able to reset it back to the version Samsung shipped it with?
* would I lose any customization that Samsung would have added? Or is running vanilla Android on any device more or less fine?
