Specs and configurationsA backlit keyboard sounds like a small extra until you try to type in a dark room without one. It’s one of the features you notice every day, and it’s easy to miss on a spec sheet, because makers don’t always mention it.
Every laptop on this page lists a backlit keyboard in its published specs. That covers a wide mix: MacBook Air and MacBook Pro models, 2-in-1s such as the Lenovo Yoga, HP OmniBook Flip and Dell Inspiron 2-in-1, business laptops like the Dell Latitude, and a long list of gaming laptops, many with RGB lighting you can customize.
Because the list is so broad, filter by what else you need. If you’ll carry it, set a weight limit; most thin laptops here weigh under 3.5 lb (1.6 kg). If you’ll work at a desk, a 16-inch screen and a number pad may matter more. If you write a lot, the laptops for writers page combines a backlit keyboard with long battery life and a light build.
The backlight won’t tell you how good the keys feel. Key travel, layout and a full-size arrow cluster matter just as much for comfort, so read the keyboard details on each laptop’s page. For the lightest picks, see lightweight laptops.
A keyboard with lights under the keys, so the letters glow and you can see them in a dark room, on a plane or in a lecture hall with the lights down. Most let you change the brightness or turn the light off.
A little. The LEDs use very little power at low brightness, and most laptops switch the light off after a few seconds without typing. Turning it off in daylight saves a small amount of battery.
Fewer of them. Budget Chromebooks and entry Windows laptops often skip it to save money, so it's worth checking. It's standard on MacBooks, most 2-in-1s, business laptops and gaming laptops.
A regular backlit keyboard glows in one color, usually white. RGB keyboards, common on gaming laptops, can show many colors, sometimes per key, and are set up in the maker's software.
