Is the keyboard backlit or not

Yes, enough so I can use it in the dark if necessary. There's a key to turn it on and off.

It has a keyboard backlight. See p.29 of the user manual to identify the Adaptive function key that controls it.

No the keyboard is not back lit. I tell you the truth my friend. My son loves it though. Wendy

As a owner of this keyboard I can confirm that the keys are in fact backlit.

The keyboard is backlit, but you will need to adjust the power settings if you want the backlighting on while on battery.

it is not back-lit, but is very good otherwise. the screen of my Nexus 7 lights the keyboard well enough.

Mine is not backlit and the F5 key didn't "turn on" the backlit keyboard option (as another poster mentioned). My F5 key turned the mouse off and on.

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

This keyboard is wired by USB and the back lit color is red. There is a key that changes between 3 brightness' and back light off

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

The keyboard is NOT backlit...I would have liked that. The screen can be bright eough that you don't need that feature in most cases.

Keys don't have a backlight, it lights up near the combatant-x in the middle of the keyboard, near the top right hand side, and the sides of the keyboard, very good keyboard, would recommend it.

No. The keyboard is not backlit and I wouldn't recommend trying to use it in complete darkness.

Hey there buyer. As Endres and Sancho have said previously, the only lights that are on the keyboard are in the usual place in the top right of the keyboard for the num lock, caps lock, etc. lights. They are blue in color, and to be honest, I did not really find them too distracting or too bright. I'm in a relatively well lit room, so it's probably just environment. And the entire keyboard does NOT light up, it's just the top right corner.

Hi, Yes it has a backlit keyboard feature, but the RAM could not be upgraded anymore.Thanks, PCrush

Yep, typing on it right now in the dark. It is back lit to the color of your choosing, it can even cycle through colors... but that is distracting. And, yes it looks just like that photo. The only keys that are not back lit are the thumb mod keys below the spacebar.

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