the benefit is using a more uptodate version of android with a custom rom, as to whether its safe to do if you find a guide on rooting your phone and follow it you should not end up with a brick.

Lots of problems on networks today m8. I have four friends using different networks with signal problems today.......To answer your initial question, I am all for rooting and the benefits always outway the risks if you follow a good guide....One big con against rooting is internet banking apps will not install on a rooted phone...Well none of the two I use will anyway.
