However, it's far from enough. When you upgrade to a new Android phone or do a factory reset, you must also want to backup app and app data for future use. In addition, some awesome backup apps, like Titanium, are restricted to rooted Android phones.

Reasons 5. Install Latest Android Version

Every time the latest version of Android (like Android 5.0) comes out, it brings you new features and improves the user experience. However, the latest version is only available for limited flagship Android phones, like Google Nexus Series. Most of the ordinary Android phones are just left behind unless one day the manufacturer makes some changes and gives you the power to do it. It's hard to say when it'll come. Therefore, to be the first one to use the latest Android version with your ordinary phone, you can do nothing but root it.
