Oppo is clearly done playing it safe with the Reno series. As of Friday, January 2, 2026, we’re just six days away from the official India launch of the Reno15 lineup on January 8.
The thing is, Oppo isn’t just selling a phone; they’re trying to sell you a “pro-grade” travel camera that fits in your pocket. Or nothing. Let’s be real, seeing a 200MP main sensor on a “Mini” device is a flex. Those too.

The “Portrait Master” Log: Field Notes
It’s an ongoing situation where the hardware is finally catching up to the “pro-photog” hype.
-
The “Mini” Flagship: This is the first time we’re seeing a Reno15 Pro Mini.
-
The Kicker: It packs the same 200MP camera and Dimensity 8450 power as the big brother, but in a 6.32-inch body. Perfect for one-handed street photography.
-
-
PureTone Technology: Oppo’s new software trick. Instead of making you look like a porcelain doll, it balances your skin tone against the background lighting. No more “blown-out” skies just to get your face bright.
-
The 4K Lockdown: Every single lens on these phones—front, ultra-wide, telephoto—can shoot 4K at 60fps. And here’s the kicker: you can switch lenses while recording without the video stuttering or changing colors.

The Price & Perk Leak
And here’s the kicker for your wallet:
-
The Privilege Pack: You can snag a ₹99 “Privilege Pack” on the Oppo Store right now. It gets you priority delivery and some launch-day freebies (rumored to be a discount on the new Enco Buds3 Pro+).
-
Expected Pricing: * Reno15 5G: Starts around ₹39,990.
Durability Check
It’s an ongoing situation where these phones are built for “rugged luxury.” They carry IP69 ratings, which means they can handle a high-pressure hot water blast. Basically, if you drop it in a puddle during a monsoon trek, you’re good.
Oppo is leaning hard into the “AI Editor 3.0” suite too—specifically AI Portrait Glow, which lets you add studio lighting to a selfie after you’ve taken it. It’s messy, it’s high-tech, and it’s clearly aimed at the Instagram-traveler crowd.
