Francis, the backlit keyboard is a nice soft white backlit keyboard and the lighting is easily adjusted from bright to dim with the F5/F6 keys on the keyboard.

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.

The keyboard is the issue with no light. The simple solution to that is to change the keyboard to one that has a cap locks indicator light. There are many Bluetooth keyboards that do have the indicator lights. I hope this helps.

Well, it does have lights when the keyboard or touchpad is activated. I bought it because of the flexibility of touchpad n keyboard combination. At the time I bought that, it doesn't have much option with the combo I'm looking for. Also the price should have drop by now. I bought it for about 100++

No it is not illuminated. If that's a biggie for you, you can check out the Logitech K800. It has illumination.

Well, its a black keyboard with black keys so in the dark, no. During the day they are quite visible. I would call the backlighting subtle, it isn't super bright and during daylight its hardly noticeable. Personally I don't like a keyboard that is blazingly bright. It might be nice if there were intensity levels, but that's a lot to ask in this price range. I will say this is a great keyboard, a pleasure to work with and it is very difficult to find keyboards with orange back lighting. My only complaint is that it is compact and so the del/home etc keys are in odd places. Other than that it is speedy for typing and comfortable for gaming.

No, The Keyboard is not visible in the dark. You must touch a key on the pad before the keyboard lights. We press any key an then press the enter key before we enter a code.

No the keyboard is not back lit. You need to look for it in the description. I bought one of the more souped up versions two years ago with all the bells and whistles. I bought this one as a Christmas gift. Small differences one of them being the backlight. I didn't think it would matter for the person I bought it for and it didn't. But when I set it up I noticed it. I like the backlit board better. If your really want that feature they do have them just make sure you find it in the description of the item being sold. Not the generic Dell ad that they show you on the sites.

No, the key board is not back lit. It's a nice keyboard if you have small hands.

The keyboard is the brightest keyboard I have ever seen. I can see even being as blind as I am. The keyboard is NOT quiet. It is loader than normal. The keys are flush..not raised so I tend to hit oteher keys often which is my biggest gripe but overall...love how well lit it is.

no, not really, the lamp is bright enough to light the keyboard on your lap top so you can type in the dark, but the "square area" of illumination is limited, if you are reading a paperback, maybe. and no the light has only the one setting, on and off.

Well, the laptop was given to my friend to own it. I am not sure if it has the keyboard lighting but you can bend the lcd to use for lighting at night when doing your works.

I'm not sure exactly what your asking but if you mean that the keyboard is lit up then my answer is no it's not.

Keyboard is backlit. Battery life will vary depending upon usage, but I can usually get 4+ hours during general use.
