Oppo’s Reno series has always been about striking a balance between eye-catching design, camera prowess, and everyday usability, and the Oppo Reno15 5G takes that formula to new heights. Launched in China on November 21, 2025, and now rolling out globally with an India debut teased for January 8, 2026, this phone targets the upper mid-range crowd looking for premium portrait photography without flagship pricing.

OVERVIEW: OPPO RENO15 5G
Design and Display
The Reno15 series sports Oppo’s signature “Dancing Aurora Vitality Design” -a shimmering glass back with dynamic color‑shifting effects that catch light beautifully in Aurora Blue, Desert Blue, Aurora White, and Sky Blue shades. The standard Reno15 measures 151.2 x 72.4 x 8 mm and weighs 187 g, with an aluminum alloy frame sandwiched between glass panels for a premium feel. An IP68/IP69 rating means it’s dust-tight and survives high-pressure jets or 2 m immersion for 30 minutes – perfect for poolside selfies or rainy commutes.

A compact 6.32-inch AMOLED panel anchors the front, boasting 1216 x 2640 resolution (19.5:9, 460 ppi), a 120 Hz refresh rate, HDR10+, and insane 3600 nits peak brightness for HDR video and outdoor visibility. 3840 Hz PWM dimming reduces eye strain during long editing sessions, while reinforced glass protection ensures durability. Pro models bump to 6.78 inches with LTPO tech for adaptive refresh down to 1 Hz, saving battery without sacrificing smoothness.
Camera Magic: 200MP Ultra-Clear System
Oppo Reno15 shines as a “Portrait Bestie” with a triple rear array: 200MP f/1.8 wide (1/1.56″, OIS, PDAF), 50MP f/2.8 3.5x periscope telephoto (OIS), and 50MP f/2.0 116˚ ultrawide (AF). The color spectrum sensor delivers natural skin tones; video hits 4K@60fps gyro-EIS/HDR. The 50MP f/2.0 ultrawide selfie (100° FOV, 4K@60fps) redefines group shots. Pro adds Hasselblad tuning for pro-level color science.
Power Under the Hood: Dimensity 8450 and Beyond
The oppo Reno15 packs MediaTek’s Dimensity 8450 (4 nm), so you get an octa-core chip with a fast 3.25 GHz Cortex-A725 at the helm. There’s a Mali-G720 MC7 GPU, up to 16GB of RAM, and a roomy 1TB of UFS 3.1 storage. No microSD slot, but honestly, with that much space, you’re good for tons of 4K videos. On AnTuTu, it pulls in around 900K, which means it breezes through Genshin Impact on high settings and handles heavy multitasking without breaking a sweat. Out of the box, it runs Android 16 with ColorOS 16-no annoying bloatware, a bunch of AI portrait tricks, and you get updates for the next four years.
Battery Beast: 6200mAh Endurance
A whopping 6200 mAh battery lasts 2 days with moderate use, powered by 80W SUPERVOOC (full charge – 30 min), 13.5W PD, 44W UFCS, 55W PPS, and reverse wiring. Pro variants hit 6500 mAh for creators editing on the go.
