Yes, it has a backlit keyboard, which is a nice color. I don't think it can upgraded to 8mb.

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

Actually, no; this model doesn't have the backlit keyboard. I hoped it would, but it doesn't.

This model does not come with backlit keyboard. Otherwise, this is a fine entry level Thinkpad model

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.

Backlit keyboard? Yes. Upgradeable RAM? I believe it upgrades to 10GB, but I did not upgrade. 16GB SSD cache. Yes. However, I replaced the slow 500GB HDD with a 750GB SSD, so I am not using the 16GB SSD cache.

JakeIt does not have a backlit keyboard, but aside from that and not having 16GB of RAM, I cannot think of much else which it does not have.

You mean the keyboard doesn't work anymore? I have not had any problems with my unit and I'm very happy with it. If I had to complain it would be not being able to upgrade the 128GB RAM. Other than that I am extremely pleased. Good luck with your problem. Sorry I couldn't help.

This model does not come with a backlit keyboard. However, you could probably find a 3rd party replacement for it, and install it yourself with a Youtube video, or take it to a local computer shop for about $100. I know they made a 15.6" model with a backlit keyboard on their website, you might be able to find the keyboard for that model and replace it in this model as they are they same size and same exact layout, only one is backlit.

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 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.

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.
