I have been able to uninstall all useless factory installed apps eating up my memory space.


I think this is the only useful thing from rooting for me.

Rooting - you gain full access to your phone, you can even increase your phone's volume over its normal settings.
Disadvantages include, you're phone may be bricked, though the chances are low if you're well experienced, also you get to void the warranty.

What can I say? U just have to root your Android if you're an app freak or else u're limited!

But rooting inappropriately may brick your phone (that is not an issue, mine has been bricked several times, but with SP flash tools and my stockrom already backed up with mtk droid tools, I can brick and unbrick as I want). The next disadvantage is that you lose your warranty. But what's there to lose when you can unroot smoothly with kingroot?

cool cool

That's what I said, but since you can't read properly, I might have to revise my thoughts.
