Along with the 2020 iPad Pro, Apple launched a new Magic Keyboard that holds the iPad in a floating position. We saw Apple SVP Craig Federighi demo the accessory in a video right after its launch. However, a report later suggested that users were facing significant battery drain issues with the Magic Keyboard. So, as per a recent patent, Apple might release a new Magic Keyboard for future iPads without a floating-hinge mechanism.

Now, if you are unaware, the current Magic Keyboard for iPad Pro consists of an angled hinge to place the iPad device. Upon magnetically connecting the back of the iPad to the hinge, the device floats above the keyboard. Users can also adjust the position of their Apple device by physically adjusting the hinge angle.
