Are you sure this keyboard is OEM? I'm typing on what's left of my keyboard of my Dell N7110 and my keys have no plastic bezel between keys.

Does not fit like OEM... very cheap and flimsy had to use double back tape to properly secure.

It was an exact replacement for me; very easy to change out. The one that shipped with my computer did not have the holes underneath; it had some kind of black plastic shield instead. It might have protected the motherboard from damage, but it was dumb of me to spill hot coffee into it in the first place. My system is an Inspiron 17-R N7110 and this is the keyboard. Installed, it looks and works exactly like the original.

It works just fine on my Dell. Just make sure the picture of what you're thinking of ordering matches exactly what your current keyboard looks like.

I'm like.. 90% certain it's not OEM. The keys are a bit weird and haven't lasted long (this is my second board). There are no indicators anywhere that it would be direct. It's either for the other 17r model, a different Vostro (I'm stretching here), or it's an after market product. It will do the job for now, but it's not perfect. If you want certifiable OEM your best bet is to find a junker.

Yes. It should be the replacement keyboard. Watch the YouTube video on how to replace the keyboard and you'll be fine.

It isn't. It does work just fine on the models listed, though. This is better than the one it came with. It is for Dells from over 5 years ago.

Mine works fine and the keys havent come lose. Check nearby devices that interfere? Check keyboard battery? Exchange/return it?

I ordered OEM and it came in black without the white bezel. Not sure on retail model

It has locking latches that click together when the keyboard is assembled. There is an easy way to get in but I suggest you leave it be. If it is having issues and is still under warranty you should get with Dell instead of voiding the warranty.

You should read up on this forum thread. It's been an issue with this keyboard. I'm not sure how it has such a high customer rating here...http://forums.logitech.com/t5/G-Series-Gaming-Keyboards/G710-broken-keys-from-normal-use-plastic-tops-Where-to-get/td-p/1075449

I don't think this is OEM. OEM is Not mentioned any where on the package or webpage. The screen I got work fine. It did come with a repair tool kit. The webpage does not show that it dies so I also purchased a kit thinking I would need it. I did not. The only issue I noticed was their is no way to calibrate a new screen. The new screen was just a bit off when typing with the on screen keyboard. My daughter did not mind it though she was just happy not to have a shattered screen anymore, buy some of the double sided adhesive you will need it. I got mine in 2 days thanks to prime

Hi I purchased two of these for family members and they both say the keyboard works great and they aren't having any issues. I believe yours may be defective.

I'm sorry, I didn't realize that post was still up.I sold the keyboard quite a while ago. However, there was no warranty so I guess it wouldn't have mattered either way :)Good luck!

Not much I can say. On a similar keyboard - I think identical, except for the brand name - I had a couple of keys pop off. One got lost before I noticed it off, and the other I could pop back on. As you've probably noticed, the cover can make this happen if you're not careful closing it.

I have relatively little experience with this type of thing, but got it changed out okay. Before you attempt it, I would recommend that the go to Google, and search for "How to install keyboard on Dell Inspiron 1420?" They will give you step by step instructions. I also did the same thing with a screen although I had a neighbor who does this for a living to finish the installation for me. With either the installation was much cheaper than sending it off. View the instructions online, however, before you jump in on it.

I don't know what a Dell keyboard is but I can tell you when this new computer arrived with its own keyboard the keys were much closer together and were flat rather than rounded and hard as I tried I could not get used to it so I went to Amazon and bought another one which has the "rounded on top" keys. It works but I have to punch the dickens out of it to produce print. It's less than an imperfect world and you can't have it all.

I just installed this today on my N53SV and it's working perfectly. It's a little louder than the old one (think I didn't fold the ribbon/cable enough and so the corners of the keyboard are floating a bit above the rest of the board -- will try to adjust it later), but all the keys are working as they should. And the 2 keys I had problems with on the old keyboard are now working perfectly.

I kindly suggest you take it off and perhaps clean under it. I find it very stranger only one key doesnt work so im inclined to believe there might be something under that key or on the laptop's surface not allowing for it to work. About shipping it back? i would contact the seller.Cheers!

It's cheap plastic over rubber domes man. This keyboard is crap. Go to craigslist and get you a used keyboard it will still be better than this one.
