Forget the OnePlus 15 – the Oppo Reno 15 could be a genuine flagship killer

More details concerning the forthcoming Oppo Reno 15 smartphone range have emerged, and they’re looking like potential flagship killers.

We had already heard about the Oppo Reno 15’s performance potential thanks to a leaked benchmark score. Now, however, we have some solid specs to ponder.

Ahead of the Oppo Reno 15’s November 17 unveiling, it has appeared on the China Telecom website.

Apparently, the regular Oppo Reno 15 will sport a 6.32-inch 120Hz OLED display with a 2640 x 1216 resolution, while the Oppo Reno 15 Pro will go with a larger 6.78-inch OLED panel.

This will be wrapped up in an aluminium alloy frame, which suggests a premium design.

Both phones will be powered by MediaTek’s Dimensity 8450 chip, which impressed us in those early benchmark results.

Battery life is promising to be strong with both of these phones. The smaller Reno 15 reportedly packs a 6,200mAh battery, while the Reno 15 Pro gives you a 6,300mAh cell.

Photography should be a feature of these phones too, as we’ve come to expect of Oppo by now. Both will allegedly feature a 200Mp main camera, a 50MP ultra-wide, and a 50MP telephoto, with another 50Mp camera serving for selfies.

Oppo Reno 15 design confirmed

Elsewhere, Oppo itself has teased the design of its new phones a week out from launch.

We get a good look at a basic shape that seems to fall into line with the general flat approach favoured by major manufacturers. Think the iPhone 17, Google Pixel 10, Samsung Galaxy S25, and indeed the OnePlus 15 – technically a cousin of the Oppo Reno 15.

Fresh to the Oppo Reno 15 is a slightly chintzy bow motif – rendered using an industry-first “holographic lithography process” on the back of the suitably named Starlight Bow model. Aurora Blue and Canele Brown are the other two colours for the Reno 15, while the Pro swaps out the blue model for Honey Gold.

They’ll be available in 12GB/256GB, 12GB/512GB, 16GB/256GB, 16GB/512GB, and 16GB/1TB memory variants.
