A: My son says yes, up to high.

Q: Does this laptop have a backlit keyboard? I don't see anything about it in the specifications.

A: Yes it does. If you hold the “FN” key on the bottom left, and press the button right under “PGDN END” button which should have a symbol that looks like a sun with a arrow pointing up. That should light up the key board! Hopefully this helps.
