Let’s start with “Why?”

 

Convenient and regular software upgrade is essential for a good business performance. It provides you with many new features and security enhancements for your Magento store’s safety.

 

Now both Magento CE and EE has gained lots of useful improvements. They include numerous new features, security advances. The most important among them are:

  • Braintree hosted fields

  • improved management interfaces

  • PayPal In-context check-out​

There are also some other minor Magento 2 new features:

  • You can successfully import and export CSV files with data that contains special symbols (those  that are not escaped during file processing).

  • There are two new web API endpoints that permit you to process refunds from orders to invoices (you don’t need a patch for that now).

  • Large catalogs are processed more swiftly and accurately (now the catalog/product indexer doesn't require a large temporary table memory allocation in MySQL for large catalogs).

Sounds good?
