OPPO Launches Reno15 Series 5G in South Africa
Johannesburg, South Africa – OPPO has officially launched its Reno15 Pro 5G and Reno15 F 5G smartphones in South Africa, with both devices set to be available in local retail stores from 7 February 2026. The launch event was held earlier today in Johannesburg, marking the latest addition to OPPO’s popular Reno series.
The Reno15 series arrives less than six months after the debut of the Reno14 series, continuing OPPO’s focus on camera innovation, AI-powered tools, and high-performance smartphones for tech-savvy consumers.
Advanced Camera Capabilities
The Reno15 Pro 5G is the flagship model, featuring a 200MP primary rear lens capable of 4K HDR video recording and seamless switching between main, ultra-wide, telephoto, and front lenses. OPPO is positioning the device as an ideal smartphone for vlogging and content creation.
The front-facing 50MP ultra-wide camera offers a 100-degree field of view and supports 0.6x ultra-wide selfies, providing a wider frame than many devices in the same category.
AI-Powered Productivity: Mind Space
Both Reno15 models feature OPPO’s AI-driven “Mind Space” tool, designed to help users capture, organize, and reference content quickly. By swiping up on the screen with three fingers, content is automatically saved into organized folders, allowing for easier planning and productivity.
For example, users planning a trip can capture content from various sources, with the AI automatically sorting information into designated folders and assisting with logistics.
Pricing and Availability
- Reno15 F 5G – R13,999
- Reno15 Pro 5G – R21,999
The devices are available in multiple colour options:
