iPad mini 4 may cram iPad Air 2's specs into a smaller package

Apple is preparing to launch a new iPad mini, the iPad mini 4 for those of you keeping count, according to new rumours.

Reports from Asia indicate that the iPad mini 4 will essentially be a shrunken iPad Air 2. Apparently it will come with an A8 processor and an 8MP iSight camera.

The dimensions will be the practically the same as the iPad mini 3. This new iteration will be sleeker at just 6.1mm compared to 7.5mm.
