Apple's iPad Pro 2020 will probably have the same square camera package as the iPhone 11. It was only a matter of time.

These purported leaked images of the iPad Pro 2020 case, released by Ben Geskin, a fairly reliable leaker, show the same opening as the current iPhone 11 camera hump.

According to reputable Apple analyst Ming-Chi Kuo, the new iPad Pro 2020 will feature a new back camera package with a time-of-flight (ToF) camera for capturing 3D scenes. We know that Apple is positioning the iPad Pro as a creative powerhouse focused on augmented reality (AR) tools and a path to Apple Glasses.

So it makes sense for Apple to incorporate the same square camera package as the iPhone 11 line. This is because it will include a ToF sensor in addition to the regular camera. Another reason this is extremely likely is that iPhone camera technology is typically incorporated into Apple's flagship models and then into the iPad. This is Apple's way of reducing production costs and increasing profits through economies of scale.

However, Kuo did not say what other cameras might be mounted on that square patch. Maybe it will have one camera and a ToF sensor, or maybe it will have two cameras and a ToF tri-sensor solution like the iPhone 11 Pro.

The case also shows a USB-C port, a power button, and an opening for the iPad Pro 2020's microphone.

Since Kuo claims that the new iPad Pro 2020 will launch next month, it is reasonable to assume that the case is authentic based on leaked information from the assembly plant.

The first half of 2020 is going to be very busy for Tim Cook and his minions. In addition to this iPad Pro 2020 launch, we have to add the upcoming Macbook Pro 13-inch 2020, and a slew of Apple products scheduled to arrive at the end of March: according to Target's Apple inventory leaks, we have the brand new AirPods X earbud headsets, iPod Touch and new versions of the Apple TV, and we'll be getting AirTags trackers like the Tile.
