The 9.7-inch iPad Air 2 is considered the world's thinnest tablet at 6.1mm thin, which is 18 percent thinner than the model it replaces. Under the hood is Apple's second generation, 64-bit A8X chip with M8 motion co-processor. It packs a new 8-megapixel camera with an f/2.4 aperture and 1.12 micron pixels. It can shoot 1080p HD video, 43-megapixel panoramas, time lapse images, slo-motion video, has a burst mode and uses the image signal processor found in the A8X.
