    Hi all,

    I have recently purchased a Thinkpad Yoga and am overall satisfied with it. However, there is one thing that is constantly bugging me.

    Does anyone else have a keyboard backlight that is uneven? In my case, the middle part is the brightest (especially the letter B), the right side seems normal, and the left side (QWE & ASD) is relatively dim. Not a too serious issue such as the palmrest creaking, but can't help noticing it every night.

    Just wanted to gauge if others have the same issue and how you deal with it (just ignore, exchange, easy to fix etc.)

    Thanks!

    Lots of laptops have keyboards with uneven back lighting. You should be able to get it replaced under warranty.
