yes it does have a backlit keyboard, it's been a good computer, except for not enough USB ports, only 2 and they are on the back

no, it is not backlit....I actually use it with a monitor and wireless keyboard. Performance has been good....knock on wood!

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 is NOT a backlit keyboard. They are just regular keys. Having said that, my stepson LOVES this laptop and says that he does not miss the backlit keys at all. Hope this helps.

No, keyboard is not backlit, but when you open it the screen gives off enough light to see the keyboard.

Yes this laptop has a backlit keyboard. It stays on when it is plugged in. There are ways to keep it lit when not plugged in.

Yes it does. It actually has a light button that gives you three different backlit key brightness levels. You can see this button immediately to the right of the space bar.

It doesn't have a backlit keyboard. The battery usually lasts me 6 hours of light use and 4-5 with WiFi, bright screen, and heavy use.

No it doesn't and that was partly why I bought it. Unless there is a secret way to turn it on, that statement about having a lighted keyboard was not true.

No backlit keyboard. I do like how the screen doesn't dim if the laptop is not plugged in. There are alternative ways to lighting a keyboard that span from DIY to purchasable additions.
