Great Chromebook. Great laptop.

Verified Purchase:Yes
For people who understand the Chromebook's unique characteristics, the Acer 15 Chromebook is the cat's pajamas. Most Chromebooks feature a 13.3-in. screen, but the Acer offers a sizeable alternative with its 15.6-in. offering. Its full HD clarity is enhanced by a matte finish that reduces glare. The two large speakers--visible on either side of the keyboard offer a full, rich sound--way beyond what you'd expect from a sub-300 dollar laptop.
The processor is gutsy enough to keep things moving along briskly. Streaming HD content is a breeze. I experienced full motion with little to no buffering and only rare minor stuttering.
It's easy to read on. Magazines are glorious with crisp graphics. Text is crisp and easy to read.
Unless you've been doing the homework, you're not going to understand a Chromebooks full capability--and the parameters in which it operates.
Take a look. Save some dough. You'll be glad you did it.

SD Card Reader
I was wondering if the SD card goes in completely inside the slot and not like the C720 for example that half of the SD card stays outside the frame of the computer
Half the card sticks out.

I am torn between
this one and the Toshiba Chromebook 2. Ugh!
Both are great machines. Both offer glorious screens. The Acer's is larger and --to my ears--the sound is better. On the other hand, the 2015 TC 2 features an illuminated keyboard. Go to Best Buy and look at the two machines.
Try the two keyboards. See if one feels more comfortable.

What is the difference between this and the CB5-571-C1DZ? Does it have a IPS screen?
Check that model number at the Acer site. Should be the same specs as Bestbuy--and yes, the screen features IPS technology.
