CRUA 34 White Gaming Monitor 165HZ 144HZ WQHD 3440x1440P IPS UltraWide Screen Computer Monitors with Built-in Speakers Supports

I admit I was a bit apprehensive when I ordered this monitor. The price for a 34” IPS panel was astonishingly low and there were an uncomfortable number of negative reviews. However, it’s for a vacation home used only a few weeks of the year so a small investment was worth risk. I was pleasantly surprised. The video quality is excellent and required only minor tweaks. I couldn’t be happier with that. I couldn’t find any dead pixels and the response rate seems ok, but I’m not using it for gaming. The colors are saturated and the black levels seem ok. The negatives: the speakers are completely junk so best use headphones or other alternate audio output. Also, one of the 4 very short screws to hold the mounting plate to the stand was missing, but it’s still sturdy with only three. The manual is also not very good, but there aren’t a lot of ways to go wrong assembling the stand. I’ll give it five stars for value, despite the minor negatives. Read more

While the monitor looks well and performed great in the beginning, it didn't last long. Right after the return window closed it developed 2 lines through it, one vertical, one horizontal. It wasn't bumped or banged around; I went to bed with it being fine and woke up with issues. EDIT: After reading my review the customer service department reached out and made sure to make it right with me though. While I was let down by the faulty product the customer service department made it right with a full refund and let me keep the faulty unit. Above and beyond service. Read more

monitor have very good picture, this monitor is used for work, great for display spreadsheet file, for 2 application windows side by side, 34" 21:9 flat screen does take a few weeks to get used to it, this is applicable to curve screen as well, built in speakers are weak, have 3.5mm jack to connect to external speakers, enable freesync to have more screen refresh rate options, hdr feature is not tested, multi-windows feature is not tested, considering price $200 , this is 5 stars, at this time, have no information on its longevity. below is related off topic cable connectors are downward facing, while i prefer back facing cable connectors, highly recommend any monitor to include better speakers, e.g. 8Wx2 speakers, instead of typical 1Wx2 speakers, in my opinion, 32" 16:9 screen is better for home/video screen usage, as most videos are 16:9 or 4:3 ratio format Read more

4 stars only because it has 3 dead pixels on arrival. Which is odd because the monitor was wrapped well. I’m too lazy to send it out and return it, and the 2k resolution makes the dead pixels so small that I barely notice it anyway despite being in the center of the screen. I had to actually look for them to even notice. Otherwise, the refresh rate is high, the picture looks great (smooth yet detailed at the same time) and I’m very satisfied with the product. There are a lot of image settings and color ranges to choose from. If you’re not in the know, higher resolutions require stronger systems. You may sacrifice high frame rates if you’re not prepared. If you are streaming video, the video quality must match the monitor’s high resolution to enjoy the full potential of the monitor’s high resolution. Also keep in mind that many games play at fixed frame rates like 60 fps, despite what your monitor’s refresh rate is. Personally, I think 4k is pointless because it requires so much system power. 2k is perfect for mid to high level gaming systems since it bridges the gap between quality and performance. I always wanted a monitor like this and I’m happy with the price. I would vote 5 stars if it weren’t for the 3 dead pixels. Read more

Overall, the monitor was great until 3 days ago. I got this monitor on February 26, 2025, and it now after 10 months has a bunch of green lines (worse if I do not have my other monitor plugged in). I tried using an HDMI cable instead of the DP cable. Even worse. What makes this even worse is that my new PC only has 1 HDMI port. Both of my other monitors - a Sceptre (bought 3 years ago) and a CRUA (shockingly even older than the Sceptre) only use HDMI. So now I am stuck with 1 usable monitor until I get a new 2nd one. Not to mention that the other two monitors are cheaper but are still lasting longer. Read more

Great monitor, especially for the price. The illustrations in the documentation are a bit challenging to get perspective, but one can figure it out fairly easily. Be careful not to put pressure on the screen (it warns you of this, but I didn't read it until I had completely removed the packaging, which it says to leave on until the base is attached).

The media could not be loaded. The 34-inch white Crua monitor is a work of art; it's beautiful. I really like that it's flat because it's fantastic for designing, creating logos, browsing, watching videos, and playing games. I also recommend it for programming. I customized the contrast, color, and brightness. I've already tried two games, Titanfall 2 and Rocket League, and oh my god, they're so beautiful and fluid! The only downside I found is that the DisplayPort cable is very short, even though they include it in the box. I also found that it has very little mobility and the monitor is quite low. Ideally, you should buy a 75x75 monitor arm to use it at the desired height. In every other aspect, I give it 9-10 stars. I highly recommend the seller; the box arrived in perfect condition, and of course, I'll include photos. I love this monitor, and the best part is that I bought it after Black Friday for $152, and I have to say this monitor should cost around $330. The monitor weighs practically nothing. The base is much heavier. If you can buy it, I wholeheartedly recommend it. The monitor model is CR340D. If you have any questions, feel free to contact me, and I'll gladly help you. I use it at 165Hz. I forgot to mention that the monitor has two HDMI ports and two DisplayPort ports, which is a very welcome feature. Read more
