I would never fully understand why people would want to risk bricking their phones because of rooting. Not interested Abegiii.
The benefits are enormous o, for power users.
For everyday use, you use to freeze apps and prevent them from running down your battery in the background and you can also prevent any app from connecting to Internet and conserve your data.

Hmmmm. But Tecno w4 seems to be doing these. When I used the phone, I noticed it kept alerting me that so and so app wants to connect to internet, use my camera, read my contacts..etc. Me sha. I support rooting o, as long as it will not void my wrranty.
I share your view too Kemi. What's the point of buying a phone and then rooting it thereby voiding tha warranty.
Sometimes you can find a phone, so you don't have to buy it lol
