Rooting - Benefits Sgs2

[l14m3]

Hi all, I have got my self a lovely Sgs2, all running absolutely fine, battery life slightly poor but as with all smart phones this is the case.

I was hoping you guys here would explain in semi-simple terms what the benefits are of rooting the device and some tutorials and explanations if possible?

All help will be greatly appreciated
