Apple keyboard with Touch Bar concept

Shortly after the presentation of the new MacBook Pro with Touch Bar, many requests for the launch of an Apple keyboard with such a function began to appear on the Internet. From there to the appearance of a concept to present such a product was only one step, and below you can see how it could look.

Just like in the case of the MacBook Pro, the Apple keyboard has all the function keys replaced with a customizable OLED screen, which can also be called the Touch Bar. You can notice that in concept this Touch Bar is perfectly integrated into the keyboard, and the real product could benefit from something similar, if Apple would ever want to launch something like this.

The problem with an Apple keyboard that has a Touch Bar lies in the fact that Apple should implement, in addition to that OLED screen, a special T1 chip to run the watchOS required for this component. How much a keyboard with such hardware could cost is hard to say, but I think Apple could sell it for at least $150.
