HP Probook x360 440 G1: Which models have backlit keyboard?

[ozaz]

The quickspecs document for HP Probook X360 440 G1 indicates that some models have backlit keyboard. See page 3 here:

http://h20195.www2.hp.com/v2/GetDocument.aspx?docname=c05949089&doctype=quickspecs&doclang=EN_US&sea...

It seems there are 8 variants/confiigurations available in my region, but I can't find any information on which ones come with backlight keyboard: http://www8.hp.com/uk/en/products/laptops/product-detail.html?oid=21019718#!tab=models

I tried calling the phone number on the page above (took me to HP store), but since all variants are not currently sold direct from HP store I was told by the sales rep that he did not have the information available.

Several of the configurations listed above are available to me from 3rd party resellers, but I suspect they won't have the informaiton from HP that would enable them to tell me with certainty if the configuration they have comes with backlit keyboard. 

Can anyone advise how I can find out which variants/configurations come with backlit keyboard?

Thanks

Hello Ozaz,

HP Probook x360 440 G1 has different configuration, where on HP store there is an option for customize with Backlit Keyboard depending on region.

Please call HP sales and request to customize with Backlit Keyboard.

Hello Ruben,

Thanks for getting back to me. In my region (UK) there are no customisation options. The laptop is only available to me pre-configured and some of these pre-configured options are onlly available from 3rd party resellers and not from the HP store.

Are you saying there are no pre-configured options which have the backlight keyboard and this is only available through customer customisation?

Thanks

 I have this laptop model.

Is it possible to order a backlit keyboard?

 Will this work?
