The Reno 13 series’ arrival in India has been announced by Oppo. Although the corporation has not yet disclosed the precise launch date, it has stated that it will occur in January 2025.
The upcoming generation of flagship smartphones is prepared for release. The introduction of Oppo’s flagship series, the Reno 13 series 5G, has been announced. We anticipate that the Reno 13 series will have two smartphones, the Reno 13 5G and the Reno 13 Pro 5G, just like this year’s Reno 12 series. Although Oppo has not yet confirmed the precise launch date, the company has disclosed that the Indian launch is scheduled for January 2025. This was verified via a post that the business posted on X.
In the teaser, Oppo also said that the Reno 13 series 5G would have a sculpted back panel, an aluminium frame, and Corning Gorilla Glass 7i for protection. According to the article, “aerospace-grade aluminium frames, one-piece sculpted glass backs, and Corning Gorilla Glass 7i for unrivalled elegance and durability” would be used in the Reno 13 series.

Furthermore, it is confirmed by the graphic that goes with the teaser post that the Reno 13 series would have a flat display and a triple camera arrangement. The camera configuration for the Reno 13 series has been somewhat altered if we compare it to the Reno 12 series from last year. According to the picture, the phone will have three cameras: two vertically aligned and the third positioned to form a triangle on the right. Given current trends in camera design, the picture also depicts an LED flash within the camera housing, which is probably a ring light.
As of the moment, Oppo’s teasers only give away so much. We do have some indication of what to anticipate from the smartphones, though, as the Reno 13 series has already been introduced to the Chinese market. The Reno 13 series in China features a 6.59-inch flat AMOLED screen with a crisp resolution of 2760×1256 pixels and a steady refresh rate of 120Hz, guaranteeing fluid performance and vivid images. The MediaTek Dimensity 8350 processor, which has an upgraded GPU for better gaming experiences and quicker app loading times, powers it. A sturdy 5,600mAh battery that supports 80W fast cable charging powers this device, ensuring rapid top-ups and extended use.
The Reno 13 carries on the legacy of the Reno series, which has always excelled at camera performance. It has an 8-megapixel ultra-wide lens for wide-angle photos and a 50-megapixel main sensor with optical image stabilisation (OIS) for crisp, steady images. A 50-megapixel selfie camera on the front ensures beautiful self-portraits and video calls.
The Reno 13 offers a sophisticated software experience with the newest features and optimisations, running on ColorOS 15, which is based on Android 15. Another noteworthy feature is durability; the gadget has IP66, IP68, and IP69 certifications, which make it dust-resistant and able to survive a variety of water exposure situations.
The starting price of the Reno 13 series in China is CNY 2,699, or around Rs 31,400. The Reno 12 premiered in India for Rs 32,999, suggesting that the Reno 13 may have a similar price when it makes its debut there, though official pricing has not yet been revealed.
