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.

YES! It definitely has a backlit keyboard. It turns itself off after not using the keyboard for a while, maybe after one minute of non-use. But as soon as you touch a key it light up again. The lighting is quite a nice feature. I've had my Aspire M5 for several weeks now and am very happy with my choice. No complaints.

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 the keyboard is not backlit. I only know of Dells being backlight. This one is not a touch screen and does not have keys that you can see in the dark. I heard that it is made in Thailand, but I do not know if that is true. I have had it for 6 months, and have already had a few problems with it... the text on one side sometimes disappears, but his only happened while in facebook, and the mouse is hypersensitive all the time, and sometimes you can be typing an email or filling in an online application, and the screen just drops right in the middle of your typing for no apparent reason several times so you have to go looking for it to see where it went before you can finish and send the email. The email screen usually pops up when the screen drops, and I can't close it out. That frequent cloudlike disappearance can be very frustrating at time.

It doesn't have a backlit keyboard and the battery lasts about 6 hours. The computer is super fast with the solid state hard drive. The start up takes seconds! I have been very pleased with mine so far! I hope this helps!

Yes the keyboard is backlit. You might be also interested to know that the screen has a matte finish.

Keyboard does not have a backlight. The battery lasts about 3 hours (maybe more) if you're just browsing or typing.

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.

I just got his laptop and yes it does have a back-lit keyboard. The back light is red on black keys with white lettering. Looks pretty awesome.

No, and the keyboard is pricey. Some say it's about $50, but the cheapest I've found is about $100 for a hot pink one that MAY be backlit. The list price is $130 for a black, bacllit one.
