No, but that's ok, it doesn't really need it. It's chicklet style, not LED. The track pad is excessively sensitive, but I twmed it s bit by putting tape over it as its not possible to adjust the settings. Finally I got the wired one instead and I am happier with that. I could not find any alternatives. The keyboard to my laptop gave out, and I found this worked really well to use my laptop - this keyboard is very similar in size to laptop keyboard Good luck!

mm, have owned this laptop for a couple of weeks now, and no, i haven't noticed a backlit keyboard. Unless it's an option which needs to be activated, because i haven't really sat down to study all details to the smallest. But all nites that i worked on it, it wasn't backlit. hope that helps.

No, the keyboard is not backlit. It is flat matte just as the pictures show. :)

No. Ours does not and that is the one thing we do miss. Our previous Dell did have a backlit keyboard and we really liked it, but this laptop has a much better resolution and watching movies on it is great.

It does not have a backlit keyboard. However, the soft keyboard can be used as a great alternative.

I gave the unit away as a gift, but I believe it was backlit. I tried it before I gave it away. The person I gave it to loves it,by the way.

No, it does not. Often the screen will provide enough light to see the keys, but if you plan on working in the dark fairly often, then you will want the backlit keys.

Yes, it does have a blue-backlit keyboard of selectable brightness but unfortunately the backlight cannot be left on all the time. It lights about a second after starting to type which can be a little frustrating.

No backlighting at all. The only blue LED's it has is for the caps lock, and a couple others, otherwise there are no lights on the keyboard.

YES, it does have a backlit keyboard and it is quite wonderful. Also, I find it is very easy to use despite the low-profile keys and my wrists do not tire when I type for long periods.

It has a keyboard backlight. See p.29 of the user manual to identify the Adaptive function key that controls it.
