While your Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Pro device might not offer many of the same features that we have come to expect out west with our devices, you are able to install all the same root applications after you follow the guide after the break. Asian markets have long been behind the western countries when it comes to software. Many of the flagships being released in places like China were not even running the latest versions of Android, which would just not be accepted in the United States. That gives you guys one huge reason to start rooting since having root access can enhance your operating system, and ultimately software, in many ways. The benefits of rooting can be directly tied to improving device performance. There are also many things you can do with root access that will change your software, such as installing an aftermarket ROM, or even a custom kernel.

Here is everything you need to root the Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Pro device running on the Android 5.1.1 Lollipop software update so you can do things like install your root applications, or go on to install a custom recovery, which will allow for your extra ROMs and kernels to be installed:
