We can expect it to be successor of the present Surface Keyboard and comes with similar looks. One more thing that will come with the new “Modern Keyboard” is the ability to use cable connection instead of wireless. From the video released by Microsoft we can see that the fingerprint is integrated in the second widows key on the keyboard in the right-hand side.

The “Modern Keyboard” will be supporting Windows Devices, MacOS, and latest Android Devices. The device is not yet available in the market but will be available shortly with the price tag of around $129.99.

Soon wider distribution will follow UK, US and Europe. The handset is a sturdy aluminium metal encased design with 4.5-inch HD screen, physical keyboard contains fingerprint sensor on the space bar of the keypad.
