    Yes there is.

    If you want a cfw, which you do because your phone either comes with 2 years of updates or has touchwiz.

    If you run cfw you NEED safetynet. Even the witzair app crashes without it. If you cfw and need safetynet, you have to have magisk. Magisk needs root for the safetynetfix.
