Is there any disadvantage of using BigInteger?

Is there any performance related disadvantage for using BigInteger.

The reason why is use BigInteger is to convert a byte array to hex string.

I have seen other functions which does the same. but since Biginteger does that in a single line of code i chose it... and now i wanna know any way the performance will be affected by this?

How critical is the performance of a single binary-to-hex conversion?Measure it for yourself.

Forget performance, what about correctness? How do you deal with things like leading zeroes and negative numbers? If your current implementation spans exactly one line I doubt you have dealt with these issues.
