Having full system access on your ZTE smartphone is the only way you can install the best apps on the Google Play Store. Many of the best apps require access to the root file system to work and without it we cannot download those apps. The problem is Google locks away the operating system of Android so we cannot have full system access unless we follow a guide to root our devices.

The only reason they do this is because many people who buy these smartphones are not tech savvy and they wouldn’t know how to spot malware. With root access, our devices are easier for malware to attack other apps because they can read all apps on your device easier. When we do not have root access each app is uniquely operated and isolated and thus making it impossible for malware to spread.
