HP Pavilion 14-ce non-backlit keyboard replacement
The HP Pavilion 14-ce non-backlit keyboard is a tested OEM-spec replacement keyboard with US English ANSI layout, drop-in compatible with Pavilion 14-ce and 14-ec laptops manufactured around 2018. It features matte non-backlit keycaps (no LED illumination), matte black keycaps, and the original ribbon-cable connector. Priced for the Pakistan market and in stock at N.N Laptops, Hafeez Center, Lahore.
Why this keyboard works for your HP Pavilion 14-ce
This is not a generic universal keyboard. It is the exact OEM-style replacement part used by authorised HP service centres — same plastic frame, same metal backplate, same FFC ribbon cable pin-out, and the US English ANSI layout that ships on most Pakistan-market HP laptops. Pulled from a tested donor unit, every single key has been verified using a keyboard-test utility before it reaches our shelf.

Detailed model-specific iFixit-style instructions are emailed on request when you order — just message WhatsApp 0314 4000131.
What we test before shipping
- Every alphanumeric, function and modifier key — verified with a key-press logger.

- FFC ribbon — clean contacts, no creases, full insertion depth.
- Frame — no bends, no missing standoffs, no glue residue.
Real-world use cases
Most replacements we sell go into laptops that suffered liquid spills, dropped keycaps, or keys that stopped registering after years of typing. A new keyboard restores typing feel without the cost of a new laptop. For typists, students and developers, a fresh keyboard is the single biggest upgrade you can make to an aging HP Pavilion 14-ce.

Why This Keyboard Stands Out in 2026
At Rs. 3,199, this HP Pavilion 14-ce Non-Backlit Keyboard Replacement US Layout is the most cost-effective way to restore your laptop's typing experience in Pakistan's 2026 spare parts market. Unlike generic keyboards that may have flimsy construction or wrong pinouts, this unit is bench-tested on an actual Pavilion 14-ce chassis — each keypress verified before shipping. The non-backlit design means longer battery life and a more tactile feel, ideal for users who type for hours and don't need backlighting. For customers in Karachi, Islamabad, Rawalpindi, Faisalabad, Multan, Peshawar, or Sialkot, we offer nationwide delivery via TCS or Leopards with same-day delivery within Lahore.
Durability and Build Quality
The keyboard uses high-quality plastic keycaps with a matte finish that resists wear and fingerprints. The metal backplate adds rigidity, preventing flex during heavy typing. The FFC ribbon cable is reinforced at the connector end to handle multiple insertions. Each unit is visually inspected for any signs of damage, and we replace any part that doesn't meet our standards. This ensures you receive a part that performs like the original for years to come.
Who Should Buy This Keyboard?
- Students and remote workers who depend on a reliable daily driver for notes, assignments, and video calls.
- Developers and programmers who need consistent key registration for long coding sessions.
- Budget-conscious buyers looking to extend the life of their HP Pavilion 14-ce without upgrading the entire laptop.
- DIY repair enthusiasts who want a drop-in replacement that saves on labour costs — or bring it to our shop for free installation.

Frequently Asked Questions
Will this keyboard fit my HP Pavilion 14-ce?
Yes — this replacement is designed specifically for the HP Pavilion 14-ce chassis manufactured around 2018. It uses the same screw layout, ribbon cable, and frame as the original part. If your laptop is an early or late revision, WhatsApp us at 0314 4000131 with the service tag and we'll verify before shipping.
Will my function keys still work?
Yes — every Fn shortcut (volume, brightness, wireless toggle, multimedia) works identically to the factory keyboard. Only the LED illumination is absent.
How long does installation take?
For most HP Pavilion laptops, swap takes 20-40 minutes by a technician. If you bring the laptop to our Hafeez Center shop, we'll install the keyboard in-store free of charge with any keyboard purchase. Walk-in or book ahead via WhatsApp 0314 4000131.

Every keyboard is tested key-by-key on a working HP Pavilion 14-ce chassis before listing. We back it with a 30-day check warranty — if any key fails within 30 days, bring the part back to Hafeez Center for a no-questions replacement or refund.
