Apple has been reported to be working lately with Sonder Design, an Australian keyboard technology company. Sonder recently showcased its E Ink keyboard composed of transparent keys that are capable of making transitions from one set of character to another. Sonder Design is backed by Foxconn, an Apple partner, according to The Tech Radar.
Another rumor spreading adds up to the speculation of MacBook with E Ink keyboard is the report that Tim Cook, Apple CEO, and Sonder met in China last week. The report says that the said meeting was to talk about the use of Sonder's keyboard technology for MacBook 2018 release.
If the idea of E Ink keyboard on MacBook will materialize, then this type of keyboard is expected to be the standard of all MacBook series release after 2018. This innovation is expected to be bigger and more unique than the Optimus Popularis, one name that comes to mind when talking about popular customizable keyboard as this technology is built into the chassis.
Francisco Serra-Martins, Sonder CEO, however, stated that they had not met with Tim Cook yet and that they cannot disclose as of the moment about any information from companies and customers they are working with.
What remains sure right now is that Apple will not fail to surprise their customers with their progressive technology innovation specifically with MacBook, The Mashable reported.
