The market for Bluetooth speakers is becoming increasingly competitive, especially with the influx of Chinese audio brands offering high-quality products at affordable prices. HiFuture is one such brand that has entered the Vietnamese market with a variety of speaker models.
Initially, I didn’t have much of an impression of this audio brand. However, after experiencing the HiFuture Gravity Bluetooth speaker, I was pleasantly surprised by its performance in this price range. In this review, I will also provide a hands-on overview of the HiFuture Gravity to see what it has to offer.

Unboxing the HiFuture Gravity.
The exterior of the HiFuture Gravity box is designed in a simple manner, primarily in white tone with the image of the speaker placed in the center. On top, you will see the product name accompanied by the hashtag
BeatMaker, and below there is an additional line indicating the IPX7 waterproof standard of this speaker.
The product inside the box is also carefully placed in a foam cushion to prevent any movement during transportation.
Inside the box, besides the speaker, you will also receive a USB to Type-C charging cable, along with a user manual and a warranty card.
“Superb Design.”
The first thing that surprised me was the size and weight of the speaker. It is quite large and heavy, weighing over 1.7 kg. As a young man, I found it quite difficult to carry around. Overall, with this weight, I think it would be best to place it in a fixed spot when going out or traveling, as holding it for a long time can be tiring.
In terms of overall design, many may compare it to JBL’s portable speakers, a well-known brand for their Bluetooth Party speakers.
Despite its affordable price, the HiFuture Gravity speaker has excellent finishing. I really like the fabric covering around the body, which not only gives a premium feel but also makes it durable for long-term use.
On the front of the speaker, there is a logo of the brand in the center. The logo is made of rubber and stands out from the surface, giving it a sturdy appearance.
On top, there are buttons and two hard plastic hooks for attaching a strap to make it easier to carry.
The buttons are well-made, with raised rubber buttons that require just the right amount of force to press, making it comfortable to use.
Lastly, the speaker has a sleek and modern design, with a combination of black and silver colors. It will definitely look great in any setting.
At the back of the HiFuture Gravity speaker is where the Type-C charging port and a LED indicator for charging are located. It is somewhat confusing that the speaker is equipped with an IPX7 waterproof standard, which can withstand light water exposure, but the charging port does not have a rubber cover.
On the bottom of the speaker is the base with raised rubber strips, providing stability and preventing it from slipping on various surfaces.
The sides of the speaker house the woofers. The middle part of these woofers is covered with a plastic layer with parallel lines, accompanied by a vibrant RGB LED strip.
The manufacturer also paid attention to the design of the surrounding edges, incorporating sound vents. This is particularly useful for those who prefer to place the speaker vertically, as the vents prevent sound from being muffled in this position.
Overall, I am very impressed with the design of the HiFuture Gravity Bluetooth speaker, which is well-crafted despite its price point of just over 1 million VND.
Connectivity and Battery Life.
Similar to most Bluetooth speakers on the market, the HiFuture Gravity is equipped with the latest Bluetooth 5.3 standard. However, as it is a budget-friendly option, it does not have an accompanying app and can only be connected via Bluetooth.
The HiFuture Gravity has a 4,000mAh battery which can provide up to 8 hours of music playback at 70% volume. It also has a fast charging time of only 3.5 hours.
The Sound Quality of HiFuture Gravity.
The HiFuture Gravity is equipped with a powerful speaker duo, consisting of a 30W woofer and a 15W tweeter, giving a total output of 45W. With this level of power, I believe it is more than sufficient for us to enjoy at parties with friends.
I have tested the speaker with various genres of music and found that it delivers a balanced sound quality. I was particularly impressed with the bass of the HiFuture Gravity, which is strong and deep without being overpowering. The mid and treble ranges also perform well, producing clear and bright tones without being overshadowed by the bass.
I also tested the speaker at 80% volume and recorded it using my Galaxy Z Flip3 for reference. You can check it out below:…
Preliminary Conclusion on HiFuture Gravity.
In my opinion, the HiFuture Gravity is a highly recommended purchase in the price range of over 1 million dong. Despite not being well-known as a brand, its excellent quality makes it difficult to find a better speaker than the HiFuture Gravity.
