Silver keyboard difficult to read

[Gianni2222]

The keyboard of my new 15-dw0014nl is very elegant, but very difficult to read due to the gray over gray color. Is it possible to install the backlight? or replace the keyboard with different colored keys? Or what can I do? I tried to use a lamp but the result is poor.

@Gianni2222 I'm afraid there are no options to install a backlight on a keyboard that doesn't come with one or has a color that doesn't suit your preference, perhaps a bigger lamp would help,

Let me know if you aren't satisfied with that solution so that I can check for alternatives to help you out.

If you wish to thank me for my efforts, you could click on "Accept as solution" on my post as the solution should help others too.

Thank you for your attention. Really I tried many lamps with no good result. Could it be possible to replace the keyboard with a blacklight or black one?

Pls note that in this device the f5 key is free. It seems that this keyboard is the same of other backlighted models.

@Gianni2222 Though replacement may be possible using 3rd party vendors or local techs, HP doesn't support or recommend doing that as it may be incompatible with other components on the device and the same may render the keyboard unstable.

I hope that answers your query, let me know if that doesn't.

Take care.

I tried with HP support, but the technician
isn't aware of other compatible keyboards.
I would like to ask other HP assistance centers.
There is no list of HP notebook service centers in Italy on the HP website. Can you tell me where to find the technical assistance centers?
