Apart from the Find X9 series, Oppo is also said to be developing its next-generation Reno-branded phones – the Reno 15 series. Since the Reno 11 lineup, which debuted in November 2023, the Reno range has consistently featured a standard and a Pro version in China. However, a new leak suggests that the upcoming Reno 15 series will include three models.
Oppo Reno 15 series may include three models
To recap, the Reno 13 and Reno 14 series offered a standard model with a 6.59-inch screen and a Pro edition with a 6.83-inch display. The first Reno 15 leak, shared by tipster Digital Chat Station in June, indicated that Oppo was considering a standard variant with a 6.3-inch display and a Pro version with a 6.78-inch panel. The latest update from the same source now reveals that a 6.59-inch option has also been added to the lineup.
According to DCS, Oppo is currently testing three display sizes for the Reno 15 series – 6.3-inch, 6.59-inch, and around 6.78-inch. This suggests that a new “mid cup” model will join the small and large versions. All three prototypes are said to feature flat displays.
There is currently no confirmed information about the chipset and other hardware details of the 6.59-inch edition. Recent reports, however, claim that the Reno 15 Pro with a 6.78-inch display could be powered by the Dimensity 8450. Its camera setup may include a 200-megapixel Samsung HP5 primary sensor, an ultra-wide lens, and a 50-megapixel periscope telephoto camera. Both the 6.3-inch and 6.78-inch models are rumored to feature a metal middle frame and wireless charging support, while the 6.3-inch variant is also expected to include a periscope telephoto camera.
The Reno 15 series is expected to launch in November in China with ColorOS 16 based on Android 16. Before the Reno 15 lineup, the brand is expected to announce the Find X9 series in October in China.
Increased demand for compact smartphones
Demand for compact flagships with 6.3-inch screens has been strong in China. Last year, Vivo launched the X200 Pro Mini, and this year, OnePlus unveiled the 13T with a compact display. This year, while Oppo launched the Find X8s with a 6.32-inch screen, Vivo also introduced the S30 with a 6.3-inch panel. Reports further suggest that the Xiaomi 16 series will also include a 6.3-inch option in addition to the standard Xiaomi 16 and 16 Pro. The Vivo X300 is expected to continue the trend, and Oppo, along with Honor are reportedly preparing Dimensity 9500-powered compact flagships for the first half of 2026.
