It would seem that there are a couple of different screens for the Samsung Chromebook, so, before ordering this one, *gently* remove the frame around your Chromebook (for tips, search "replacing chromebook screen") and verify that your screen looks like this one (it has two tabs on each side, one near the top and one near the bottom, each of which has two holes but with a screw in only one of those two holes). If so, this is the screen you want.

I did the entire replacement with a small butter knife (to help gently pry off the screen frame, mainly because I was checking in the kitchen prior to ordering), a small Phillips screwdriver, and a box-cutter knife (any small, flat tool will do - it's used to disconnect the old screen by prying up a part of the attachment), and it only took a few minutes. Again, search for replacement tips - there's a popular video that will show you all you need to know.

The screen fit perfectly, so previous issues with hole placement have apparently been fixed. It's a bit tricky reattaching the display connector, so I'd recommend attaching it, screwing in at least a screw or two, and verifying that it works by powering up the system before snapping the frame back on.

The screen is no better or worse than the original, and it's a lot cheaper than buying a new one.

The screen was well packaged by the vendor, original Vivo box inside Amazon box. The Samsung chromebook was designed to easy screen replacement or swapping as the screen is module-ized as one piece. There are plenty of how-to replace videos on the web for this Chromebook model.

I replace the screen to my chromebook in less than 5 minutes. Turn off chromebook; snap the screen plastic border panel out by hand, unscrew 4 screws, unhinge the metal connector lock handle then pull connector out, take out the broken screen assembly; position the new screen assembly, connect the connector to it, snap the metal connector lock handle down to lock, place the screen assembly back to its place, screw in 4 screws, snap the screen plastic border panel back in; spend 1 minute to inspect the work then turn on the chromebook; done.

I ordered this Vivotechnology screen from Amazon and the screen fits exactly everywhere including the screw holes. I was concerned about this because some of the earlier reviewers mentioned that the screw holes of their ordered screens did not match the chromebook case. But I did not see that, everything fits perfectly as the original.

***UPDATE 2014 - July 17th ***
-Added updated panel identification information in the review and at the bottom. Credit to review comment from Dawn B. Roy.
-Added brief subjective experience.
-Listing of which panels to expect depending on the model/series (still, check your box, or the back of your TV as described below) - also credit to D.B.R.

Short version: A "TV" is a container for its panel, with some additional features (such as speakers). Buying a TV with a different panel, even if it's the "same TV," is buying a different TV. Samsung seems to think we don't care - and many consumers may not. Most buyers may compare their new TV to an old one that isn't even full HD or to a typical* computer monitor, so any panel will look great, even if it costs more than it should due to (arguably) deceptive practices. In my experience, my TV seems to have the deficits listed for its panel - subpar viewing angles, especially with dark colors.

*TN panel or a CRT, as opposed to IPS or anything with better viewing angles, color, etc.

FULL:
Many of these TVs don't have a Samsung panel (the screen/the part that has/makes the image!)! I cannot believe this has not been mentioned. It makes a SUBSTANTIAL difference, because some panels they use should be in TV's that cost $100 less.
[...]

Can you imagine buying a car because you know its manufacturer uses great, reliable engines, only to find out that they use completely different engines without telling you, all of which are of lower quality? Samsung does this with their TVs, and some of them don't EVER have Samsung panels (e.g., the 37" model will NEVER have a Samsung panel because they don't make 37" panels).
