OPPO Reno15 series teased ahead of India launch


OPPO has started teasing the Reno15 Series in India, ahead of launch. The successor to the Reno14 series was introduced in China last month.

The series consists of three distinct models: the Reno15 Pro, the Reno15, and a new addition to the portfolio, the Reno15 Pro Mini.

The series is characterized by the debut of HoloFusion Technology, a design innovation that applies a three-dimensional layered visual effect to an integrated one-piece sculpted glass back.

This is complemented by the Dynamic Stellar Ring Design, a square-ring camera module that creates a halo effect under direct light, designed to blend seamlessly with the phone’s rear panel.

The New Pro Mini and Display Specifications

A notable shift in this generation is the introduction of the Reno15 Pro Mini, targeting the segment of users who prefer a compact form factor without sacrificing high-end specifications.

All models feature a 120Hz adaptive refresh rate and 10-bit color depth to ensure fluid visuals and power efficiency.

All-Round Armour Body

To address device longevity, OPPO has implemented the All-Round Armour Body across the Reno15 Series. This structural framework relies on two primary innovations:

  • Sponge Bionic Cushioning: Inspired by the porous, shock-absorbent nature of sea sponges, this internal structure is designed to dissipate kinetic energy from drops, protecting sensitive internal components.
  • Aerospace-Grade Aluminium Frame: This frame provides a 200% increase in yield strength compared to standard plastic frames, contributing to a 36% improvement in overall drop resistance.

The series also carries high-tier environmental resistance ratings. The devices are certified with IP66, IP68 (immersion in 1.5m freshwater for 30 minutes), and IP69 (protection against high-pressure, high-temperature water jets). Additionally, the charging ports are platinum-coated to prevent corrosion over time.

Design Aesthetics and Dimensions

The color palette for the Reno15 Series draws heavily from natural phenomena:

  • Reno15 Pro: Available in Sunset Gold (liquid gold effect) and Cocoa Brown.

  • Reno15 Pro Mini: Offered in Cocoa Brown and Glacier White (featuring a 3D ribbon pattern).

  • Reno15: Comes in Glacier White, Twilight Blue, and Aurora Blue.

Despite the focus on ruggedness, the series maintains a slim profile. The Reno15 Pro measures 7.65mm in thickness, while the Reno15 Pro Mini offers a lightweight build at 187gThe standard Reno15 varies slightly in thickness between 7.77mm and 7.89mm depending on the specific color finish.

Earlier reports revealed Snapdragon 7 Gen 4 SoC for the Reno15 Pro Mini for the global markets, including India compared to Dimensity 8450 SoC in the Chinese model.

OPPO is also offering a Rs. 99 Privilege Pack for Reno15 Series 5G that offers a 50% discount on Enco Buds3 Pro and a 180-day hardware defect replacement coupon when you buy any of the phones after the launch.

The OPPO Reno15 series will be sold on Amazon.in, Flipkart, OPPO India online store as well as offline store after the launch. We should know more details in the coming days.
