I just got the phone and OTA is for B170, I saw some post mentioning B180. Is there any big benefit of manually updating to B180?

Hi guys. gonna ask a silly question since im not a pro on android stuffs. bought my mate 8 with 4gb ram today. when i opened the task manager and cleaned up unwanted process, it still shows remaining 2.6gb usable ram of 4gb. I cleaned up all the processes so wouldnt it be like above 3gb ram free to use? I have 4gb ram after all

Don't bother about ram at all on android. You have 4GB and that is a lot of ram. Is not necessary even to look at it
Google had said in Android unused ram is wasted ram
Don't make phone worse by fiddling with it - just allow the OS to manage it
Ram management is completely different vs say Windows platform
