Is it worth it to replace battery on iPad 2?

"@kwcze

In terms of further usability of an iPad 2, no. It is not worth it to replace the battery on an iPad 2. Apple's last iOS was iOS 9.x on an iPad 2. The forthcoming version is 11.3, or 11.5.

What this means is you will not be able to download and use many new apps coming out for iOS due to the restriction on iOS versions. Most new apps are restricted installing on to iOS 10 or newer.

Furthermore, iOS 9 has a lot of security holes that Apple won't fix (google KRACK vulnerability), especially ones that prevent the Safari browser from being hijacked.

Cydia is a community that is slowly shutting down due to lack of interest. Also, a Jailbreak is actually a security exploit. This means you are allowing someone enter your iPad using a security hole to install software that is written by someone you don't know which does unknown things to your iPad and opens a door to more software that you don't know everything about."

"The extreme battery throttling didn't start until iOS 10.2.1. Use an app like Battery Life and see if your battery has below 80%. Repair is so difficult, I wouldn't recommend replacing anything unless absolutely necessary. Hope that helped, good luck! (If you do decide to replace it, the guide and part are linked below)

If you want to keep the ipad and it is still being used, i say you should replace it if you regularly use it.

Did you replace your iPad’s battery and did the perfomace get any better?
