    A rooted device needs at least an su binary and and typically an app that handles su requests, therefore rooting without e.g Magisk is not possible. But if you are referring to those only on ancient Android versions usable apps like Kingroot and so on, then it is possible. Just unlock the bootloader and install Magisk.

  • To piggy-back on @Robert's comment, Magisk is trusted and opensource, so there's no reason not to use it (AFAIK, stay away from SuperSU as it's no longer opensource as of a few yrs ago) Commented Apr 30, 2021 at 11:52
