Is that a real video or cgi? The motion reminds me of motion tweening.

Historically, Apple used real photos and video for marketing material, only lit and polished to perfection to create a sort of hyper-real effect. Nowadays, who knows.

I’d suspect the same. From that angle, the camera bump is on the opposite edge; when I hold my iPad Air in the same position, the camera bump is also just about hidden.

That being said, I’d also suspect that Apple chose that angle deliberately.
