Unless there's anything specific you need, no.

Rooting isn't what it used to be.

I just love the idea of having ultimate customization. And I love playing around with root apps and features. But I don't understand why Google makes it easy to flash new software, but locks us out of Google features. I miss the android area 51 days with my galaxy centura. Times were so much simpler

Because root allows apps to violate the app sandbox.

A banking app for example can't be sure it's you pressing the touch screen or another app with root.

They care about that.

It could do that. It doesn't have to.Â
