Hello!
I am currently looking for a HP convertible x360 and since I am german I need the qwertz keyboard.
My problem now seems to be that all notebook types fitting for me (Pavilion, Envy, Spectre), despite having the
qwertz layout, are missing the '<' and '>' signs below 'A' and left of 'Y' and instead have a longer shift key.
Since I plan on unsing the device for programming I really do not want a new position for the '</>' key.
So my question is, is there an option available to get my desired keyboard for the x360 types of Pavilion, Envy, Spectre,
or is this simply not possible?
Thank you in advance.

Thank you for your quick answer.
That layout is exactly what I am looking for.
Up until now I only watched german youtube videos where I saw keyboards with qwertz layout, but still the long shift key.
I think you are right, my best option would be to call my local store, or drive directly to them.
But since you have this type of layout in France, it should also be the same in Germany.
Thank you for your help
Best Regards
