Root which phone?

[RonW3]

I have a NEXUS 6 and Blackberry Priv. I like both. Each has its pluses and minuses. I was thinking of rooting one and going with a custom rom since both are no longer supported by their manufacturer. Which would you root?

You won't be able to root the BlackBerry Priv. There is no way to unlock the bootloader.

The Nexus 6 is easy to unlock the bootloader and then root.

Thank you. I have seen a couple of videos on YouTube rooting the Priv and one side loading Nougat 7.1.1. I was leaning towards rooting the N6 from the start.
