Review: Great backlit keyboard for Lenovo T480 - DIY upgrade from an unlit keyboard to this one with the backlight on my T480. You can find how-to videos on YouTube. I would call this moderately easy to do, just need the right size screwdriver and some patience with the two ribbon cables inside, which are a bit delicate. After install, works better than the 8-yr-old keyboard it replaced, with the option to do bright, dim, or off on the backlight
Review: Really bad design. - Really bad design. I went through 2 of these and none worked on my T480. 1) Screws in the back don't align with the computer screws??? Straight up bad design as the first keyboard was able to screw only one, and the second keyboard, none. 2) Bent from factory. Both didn't want to slide under the keyboard frame. 3) Trackpoint buttons defective. Both keyboards had defective buttons and mis-registered clicks from the trackpoint buttons.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great backlit keyboard for Lenovo T480
*by M***W on May 14, 2025*

DIY upgrade from an unlit keyboard to this one with the backlight on my T480. You can find how-to videos on YouTube. I would call this moderately easy to do, just need the right size screwdriver and some patience with the two ribbon cables inside, which are a bit delicate. After install, works better than the 8-yr-old keyboard it replaced, with the option to do bright, dim, or off on the backlight

### ⭐ Really bad design.
*by D***S on May 22, 2025*

Really bad design. I went through 2 of these and none worked on my T480. 1) Screws in the back don't align with the computer screws??? Straight up bad design as the first keyboard was able to screw only one, and the second keyboard, none. 2) Bent from factory. Both didn't want to slide under the keyboard frame. 3) Trackpoint buttons defective. Both keyboards had defective buttons and mis-registered clicks from the trackpoint buttons.

### ⭐⭐⭐ Two mislabeled keyboards, the second of which worked well enough
*by P***I on January 6, 2026*

I first received a 5N20V43929, meant for a ThinkPad T14. The cables were not in the correct location for a T480. I then ordered a replacement, which was also in a box labeled 01HX499 but turned out to be a 01YT142, meant for a T460s or T470s. I decided to keep it because it was still compatible. The trackpoint malfunctioned, I couldn't find a way to disable it in software without also disabling its buttons, and I prefer the trackpad anyway, so I took a pair of scissors to the trackpoint's cable, which stopped its motion altogether without losing any other functionality. Now my T480 has a backlit keyboard with all the same keys, green modifier lock lights, and orange mute lights, as opposed to no backlight and white indicators.
