If you’re looking for a new smartphone to buy in 2025 that won’t cost you an arm and a leg, OPPO might have something for you. The company has announced its latest smartphone in the form of the OPPO Reno13 series, the successor to 2024’s Reno12 series. This is further separated into the Reno13 Pro 5G, Reno13 5G, and Reno13 F.
The OPPO Reno13 Pro 5G
Taking a look at the Pro model, it features a 6.83-inch AMOLED display with a 120Hz refresh rate. OPPO also seems to be taking pride in the design of the phone. The company states that it designed the Reno13 series to reflect the “majestic wings of butterflies.”
It boasts the use of a one-piece sculpted glass back cover along with the use of an aerospace-grade aluminum frame.
Under the hood, users can look forward to the MediaTek Dimensity 8350 chipset. It is accompanied by up to 12GB of RAM and 512GB of storage. The Reno13 Pro also comes with a triple camera setup with a 50MP main shooter. Speaking of cameras, the Reno13 series comes with an IP66/IP68/IP69 water and dust resistance rating across all models.
This will allow users to actually take photos underwater without the need for a case. There are camera features like Underwater Mode for color tuning and corrections for distortion while the phone is submerged.
OPPO has also equipped the phone with a 5,800mAh battery that supports 80W SUPERVOOC fast charging.
If you’re a gamer, the OPPO Reno13 series could also be worth your consideration. This is thanks to an AI-powered multi-cooling system with an expanded vapor chamber. OPPO says the use of algorithms will help to dynamically manage temperature for extended gaming sessions.
AI-powered features and tools
Seeing as this is a phone launching in 2025, how can it not come with AI features? The OPPO Reno13 series has a bunch of AI tools and features that have become the norm among smartphones these days.
This includes AI-powered photography and editing tools. For instance, there is the AI Eraser that removes objects from photos. There is also the AI Clarity Enhancer tool that can sharpen distant scenery, AI Unblur to help make blurry photos clearer, and AI Reflection Remover removes glass reflections from images.
The included AI tools can also help with daily productivity tasks. For instance, the Documents app can summarize, edit text, and extract charts. The Notes app has also been given AI capabilities for formatting, editing, and content expansion.
The AI features also extend to gaming. The upgraded AI HyperBoost gaming engine is now smarter when it comes to allocating resources and stabilizing frame rates when you’re gaming. Pricing and availability of the OPPO Reno13 series will depend from region to region, so check with your local retailer for the details.
