My Opinion ?

Well guys I hope by now you might have understood what’s rooting but you might be confused about

Should you root your device or not ?

Well Rooting will not harm your device when you download the softwares from trusted sources such as Google Play. But the problem comes when you download apps from some untrusted sites. Yes you know internet is full of bads and goods, so trusting some unknown sites can be dangerous.

Tip after Rooting: Always download softwares after rooting from trusted sources such as Google Play.

Otherwise it’s always risk and anything can happen, especially with ROMS , you get them from websites that cannot be fully trusted . Once I bricked my phone after install some ROM on my device (it means that it was not able to open after that ), so I send it to company where they flashed it and then it worked again.

Some Download and install custom ROMS on your device at your own risk after rooting.

If you want to explore more from your device then you should definitely root your device.

But if you are satisfied with the your phone and doesn’t want anything more from it then you should not root your phone.
