With the product launch event from Xiaomi scheduled to take place later this month on October 29, the company has begun to raise the cadence of its pre-release announcements, which have also included the release of an important accessory for the Xiaomi Pad 7 series, namely the Xiaomi Floating Keyboard. The new accessory aims at making the tablet more productive and heterogeneous, hence offering users an experience akin to that provided by a laptop.
Key Features of the Xiaomi Floating Keyboard

Last year’s Xiaomi Tablet 6 series saw the same keyboard made with nano-leather materials and carried a 64-key layout called Smart Touch Keyboard; this year, the so-called floating keyboard really takes that design to the next level and offers even more functionality and flexibility to users. Coupled with the Xiaomi Floating Keyboard, the Xiaomi Pad 7 series is claimed to assure the ultimate premium and productive mix, placing it as a strong competitor in the tablet arena.
