They will start off by delivering better battery life for your smartphone. The rooting lets you enjoy root-only apps and custom ROMs. The goodies also mean new features and customization options.

You will also get the chance of having superuser and admin permission. Having root access doesn’t mean security threats. The SRSRoot won’t bring the following: bloatware.

The smartphone you decided to root will experience difficult times after you want to have it updated, too. When firmware used for an upgrade gets installed, it will wipe the root access away.
