A lot of iPhone and iPad users are almost at the end of their wits regarding what seems to be an endless wait for a proper and fully working iOS 10 jailbreak tool, especially one for an iOS 10.2 jailbreak tool. However, some users are starting to find a jailed device actually better than the exploited ones and this, in fact has more benefits than it seems.
The online space are currently being flooded by endless loops of iOS 10 jailbreak news, but there hasn't been any real improvement from the incomplete jailbreak experience, which happens to be also limited on iOS 10.1.1 and below. However, Fonepaw lists down a number of pros and cons with jailbreaking an iDevice and the latter seems to be outweighed by the former.
To summarize, having any iOS device jailbroken unlocks it, but this is without any limitations. With this, the device is pretty much open to everything and mostly, changes will take place with varied notifications depending on how well, the user have setup their devices. The bad news is, most spyware and viruses can go through this hole, putting personal information at risk. This is a surfacing problem, especially with devices who can't be updated to the latest version of iOS, which addresses these issues.
Another thing to take note of is the chances of an unstable state. Even with the latest Yalu exploit for iOS 10.1.1, things still have the tendency to mess up and this can awfully reward unsuspecting users with irreversible damage, which Apple will certainly take no responsibility for.
There's also the problem of specific devices and setup from being unstable. Right now, the Yalu exploit for iOS 10.1.1 is still under beta stages, not providing any assurance of a smooth experience. There isn't even any regarding an iOS 10.2 jailbreak tool soon enough, though some users may still have their reservations regarding this.
As Know Your Mobile also reported, jailbreaking an iOS device has been more complicated compared to how it used to be before, increasing the chances of permanently damaging and bricking an iPhone or iPad. This would most likely be not covered by any form of warranty, which translates to flushing hundreds of bucks off the toilet.
As the iOS have also evolved, the need for jailbreaking devices has decreased significantly. The newer updates now covers customization and with some good researching, some could even fully modify and tweak their devices at their hearts' desire without resorting to any exploit. This makes the wait for an iOS 10.2 jailbreak tool even less worth. Things like TweakBox, vShare and iNoJB has their uses from time to time.
