US Red Backlit Keyboard Frameless(Without Frame) Replacement Compatible with DELL G3(3779),G3(3590),G3(3579),G5(5587),G5(5590),G7(7790) -Red Print

The keyboard is working good, the process of changing it requires patience and focus, a lot of screws and parts must be taken off in order to get to the keyboard area, I used a YouTube video as help. Make sure you have the right tools before starting this process, like very small screwdriver with magnet, and a plastic spatula used to detach plastic components. It happened to me that some screw wasn't loosening and I damaged the head and the screwdriver won't grip to it anymore, so if you have some extra tight screw don't damaged the head or you will have a bad time, like me.Returning to the product, it feels smooth and with quality, the blacklit only works when turning on, so I guess is something I have to configure withing the system. For the price, is more than excellent.

The keyboard on my Dell G5 15-5587 worked intermittently and slowly worsen. This keyboard looks and feels the same. The process of replacing is tedious and takes me about 2 hours after watching several YouTube videos. There are two ribbon cables that need to be folded correctly, especially the smaller one (it's not a simple fold) and they are easily torn. Check the old keyboard and pay attention to which way the cables are facing (top/bottom). I would recommend to practice on a piece of paper first. The keyboard came a day late but I didn't mind. It cost less than half the price of an OEM keyboard.

What a load of crap! I replaced my keyboard and battery at the same time, and experienced some issues with the PC afterward where I needed to take the whole thing to a shop for help. I did notice while connecting the keyboard that there was no connector for the backlight, and as it turns out, there is actually no backlight even though the item description states that there is. The real kick in the butt though is realizing, after paying for the shop to figure out why my PC wasn't booting, to get it home and discover upon examination that the keyboard is in FRENCH. This isn't what I ordered!!! It does work, but the keys are laid out different than the US keyboard. I'm going to stick with this for the time being, and hope I don't have any functional problems.

Not a backlit keyboard as advertised. Which is kind of disappointing. So beware before purchasing. False advertisement for the blue keyboard atleast. It works fine. Just don’t get if you want to use the back light.

Bought this to replace a Dell G5 5587 keyboard that had a whole column of keys go out (2, W, S, and X, and the numpad - had also started going), which as a gamer and programmer was a bit of a nightmare TT_TT The keyboard came well-packaged in its own little box surrounded by styrofoam and looking brand new. Fits perfect and lights up well.A note about the replacement process:This is a pretty daunting task if you don't have the proper tools. Use a set of screwdrivers made for small electronics (like a watch repair kit), as there are several screws that will need to be removed and some are suuuper little. Since this is just the keyboard without the metal frame piece, you will also need to bend/fold the cable ribbons yourself so they thread through the frame properly when done. Keep the old keyboard until you are completely finished -- there are white line guides on the ribbons that indicate where the folds go depending on the make of your laptop (on mine, pictured, it was "Dali 15" or "D15" on the smaller cable). Don't be afraid to really crease the fold to make it stay down, and use the sticker side on the big ribbon to tape it down once you've got it. I recommend taking pictures of each step just as a reminder of where things go, since you will need to unplug and replug pretty much everything to get to the keyboard (as another user mentioned, this is why the next time the laptop starts up will take a while, as it is checking all the things that were just plugged in -- it may ask you to reset your system date/time as well, this is totally normal).Alternatively, bring this keyboard and your laptop to a repair shop -- at least you will save on them buying the part for you :P

Hard to see the actual letters that you’re typing on since this creates a halo around each keyboard letter, but does not brighten the letters on the keys.

Took me well over an hour to fully install and my hands hurt (but that's Dell's fault, not the keyboard's)The backlight doesn't seem to work. It's entirely possible that I messed up in the installation, but I don't care enough to open it back up right now. Looks the same as the original except without outlines on WASD. Feels like it requires a bit more force to press a key than the original, which I actually like better. Much better than having to carry an external one around.Edit: The backlight actually does work, it's just way dimmer than the stock one. Changed 4->5 stars.

My back space key starting to pop off once in awhile and driving me nuts. The process to replace it was not fun at all but with a little help on YouTube and common sense was completely manageable with patience. The backlight ribbon cable was backwards but was able to flip it around at the connection. I was little worried when I rebooted the laptop and the fans engaged full speed and the screen was blank. After letting it sit for about 2 minutes it rebooted fine and is working perfectly. The backlight quality is very red like the OEM Dell one was. The only issue I see, and its very minor, the backlight under the "{" key is not 100% lit but is not THAT noticeable. Time will tell but I have no issues with this especially for the $26 I paid.
