Is the keyboard backlit?

It is. You can adjust it with the samsung software and select how bright it gets and a timer for how long until it turns off without use. Also the Function keys are backlit in a separate color.

Yes it is backlit........I think it comes on automatically once you are in the dark. It remains off in daylight.But I am subject to correction on that; I'm no expert !

Yes. I like the keyboard, but my wife feels like the key press is too short a distance...

No, the keyboard is not lighted. I've never had the need for it. The screen has a variable brightness that illuminates the keyboard well enough with low ambient light.

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.

Yes. There is a button on the keyboard where you can toggle the backlighting off and on.

No, I don't believe it is backlit. I certainly haven't found that option yet.

It is not backlit. I love the touch-screen interface with Windows 8 on this computer though :) Good Luck

It's not backlit. The "blue" in the description refers to the type of switches used in the keys.

I don not own it, but reading the specs it certainly has a backlit keyboard (that you cannot turn off)

No, the keys are not back-lit. They are just like any standard keyboard, but with the extra buttons that maybe used for gaming.

No it does not have a backlit keyboard. The batter lasts about 6 hours. It is super fast with the solid state hard drive and takes seconds to turn on. I am happy with mine so far. I hope this helps!

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

It does have a backlit keyboard. Battery lasts about 5 hours in routine operation. It is slow.

YES, it is! You wouldn't know it from reading the product specs sheet, but it definitely is. In fact, the keyboard backlight is on by default (when you get the computer). If you want to turn it off to save battery power simply hit the Function key (Fn) plus the F9 key.

Mine is. Pushing F5 toggles the backlight on or off. I bought the refurbished model here on Amazon. I believe the standard model does not have backlit keyboard.
