Then, no - the computer does not have a backlit keyboard.

 

This is a specialty feature.

Backlit keyboard is not available on many computers.

 

Yes, but...

We can double-check - provide us with the product number / exact model name of your computer.

 

How-to find your product number / model name:

ARE THERE KEYBOARD COVERS OR SOMETHING YOU CAN  INSERT INTO YOUR USB TO MAKE IT LIGHT UP?
