Pros

UI testing on different Devices like iOS, Android, MacOS, and Windows OS.
Automation testing with the help of Cypress gives automation access to different OS and devices.
Comparison with two devices how UI will look a like.
Bug Capture tool: Using this tool, a user can capture a bug while live recording it, and the tool captures action as well. This helps developers identify and fix the bug more easily.

Cons

Sometimes when there are too many users access it it lags a lot.
Whenever new OS version comes, the update came little bit late on BrowserStack.
It should capture device internal sound as well while recording the bug.

Great solution even if you're non-techy

Pros

Ability to flick through different device options in one interface
Exhaustive and constantly updated options, to keep with new product releases
Ability for a non-tech person (such as myself) to navigate the platform with ease

Cons

Limited scope for testing on free version
A low fee option (with limited functionality commensurate with price) would be great for non-tech people who need this infrequently as opposed to the needs of power users.
