I keep getting underwhelmed on Apple products as I attempt a move from Windows. Sheesh, I assumed that it would like the Logi keyboard I was using on my PC. You are right though as there is no mention of that feature in the description and I stupidly assumed it was there.

Connected a new Magic Keyboard with Touch ID to my MacBook Pro and can't seem to get the backlighting feature to work. 13.3 MacBook Pro with M2 silicon.

I did not know the external keyboard included a backlight... Where did you get that idea(?)

"The Apple Magic Keyboard with Touch ID doesn't have any backlighting"

Apple is an equal frustration conduit for features that Mac users don't want and Windows veterans seek. If backlighting a keyboard was on their radar, Apple would have done it already, and likely defer to Logitech.
