Just got my J70 replaced (would not boot up)

After charging for 6 hours and still saying "charging" I unpluged it. It had full bars. It quickly dropped to 1 bar in a few hours (I was messing all the time and back light was on). Its been on 1 bar now for 4 -5 hours.

Ive got firmware 1.076 - is it worth going to 2.02? what are the benifits?
