The new REST API is easier to implement than the old one - if follows common RESTful approach instead of reinventing wheel with proprietary, binary based communication. If you already have implementation already done, you won't gain much if you decide to use the new one.

Just be aware that https (ssl) might be quite slow on many devices.

If you start from 0, yes...
If you already have implemented something, you can continue.
