s week number rollover the issues would impact accuracy of gps location and set the device s date and time to an incorrect value 40 broadpwn exploit vulnerability edit the ipad 2 is one of many computers tablets and mobile devices susceptible to the broadpwn exploit which was publicized in july 2017 41 apple quickly released an update for ios 10 to fix the problem but a fix was never released for ios 9 or earlier versions of ios as a result older apple devices incompatible with ios 10 including the ipad 2 were left vulnerable indefinitely this has raised concerns of potentially widespread attacks using the exploit particularly in locations of concentrated ipad 2 deployment such as certain primary and secondary schools 42 hardware edit see also ipad hardware apple a5 chip used in the ipad 2 the ipad 2 features an apple a5 package on package pop system on chip soc which comprises a 1 ghz dual core 32 bit cortex a9 cpu 512 mb of ram and a dual core powervr sgx543mp2 gpu 3 43 other features include front and rear cameras a three axis gyroscope headset controls proximity and ambient light sensors microphone magnetometer accelerometer and a 9 7 inch multi touch screen with a maximum resolution of 1024 768 hence resulting in 132 ppi 3 the ipad 2 has four physical switches including a home button near the display that returns the user to the home screen and three plastic physical switches on the sides wake sleep volume up down and a third switch for either screen rotation lock or mute the home button on the ipad 2 is easier to double tap than the previous generation of the ipad 44 apple reduced the size of the ipad by eliminating the stamped sheet metal frame from the display integrating new thinner glass technology for the touch screen overlay and slightly reducing the space between the display and battery 45 the ipad 2 s screen is thinner lighter and yet stronger than the original ipad s 46 the ipad 2 also supports screen mirroring via the digital av adapter 47 and through airplay as of ios 5 the ipad 2 has a 25 w h rechargeable lithium ion polymer battery 3 that lasts 10 hours like the original ipad it is charged via usb or included 10 w 2 a power adapter the battery is 2 5 mm thick 59 smaller than the original and has three cells instead of two the improvements allowed the injection molded plastic support frame to be omitted 45 the 10 w usb power adapter provides 4x the power of a conventional usb port 3 the tablet has an audio frequency response of 20 hz to 20 khz without third party software it can play the following audio formats he aac aac protected aac mp3 mp3 vbr audible formats 2 3 4 aea aax and aax alac aiff and wav 3 the revised tablet adds front and rear facing cameras which allow facetime video calls with other ipad 2s the third generation ipad iphone 4 and 4s fourth generation ipod touch and macintosh computers running mac os x 10 6 6 or later with a webcam 48 the 0 3 mp front camera shoots vga quality 30 frame s video and vga quality still photos 3 the 0 7 mp back camera can shoot 720p hd video at 30 frame s and has a 5 times digital zoom 6 both shoot photo in a 4 3 fullscreen aspect ratio the rear camera shoots video in 16 9 widescreen to match the 720p standard although only the central 4 3 part of the recording is shown on the screen during recording 49 the forward facing camera shoots in 4 3 50 the apple a5 chip doubles processing speed and has graphics processing that is up to nine times faster than the previous ipad 51 52 however benchtests and hardware assessments performed by various third party news sources and technology blogs indicate that those claims are exaggerated the benchmark assessment conducted by anandtech showed that the gpu of the ipad 2 is only 3 times faster than that of the original ipad 53 cpu benchmarks conducted on the ipad 2 by iosnoops indicate a 66 performance increase compared to the original ipad 54 55 3g versions of the ipad 2 offer cdma2000 support for customers using the device on a cdma network or gsm umts support for customers using the device on a gsm umts network the ipad wi fi 3g model includes an a gps receiver for tracking the user s location given permission also the ipad 2 3g model includes a plastic cap like band at the top on the back for the 3g antenna the metallic grille for the microphone is replaced with a matching plastic black grille on the 3g model 56 gsm models of ipad 2 use a sim card while cdma models use an esn to connect to the cellular network the device is 15 lighter and 33 thinner than the original ipad it is
