OPPO’s latest Reno series offers mid-range pricing, but not a ‘mid’ performance

Fact Checked

OPPO’s powerhouse Reno series is back, with the three-device Reno13 range launching in Australia on March 27, 2025.

Combining a powerful performance, big batteries, durability and sleek designs, the latest Reno series from OPPO includes the Reno13 F ($599 AUD RRP), Reno13 ($899 AUD RRP) and Reno13 Pro ($1,299 AUD RRP).

“This is the Reno Series like you’ve never seen it before,” Michael Tran, OPPO Australia’s Managing Director, said.

“With the technology inside, there’s absolutely nothing ‘mid’ about these smartphones. We’re packing 5,800mAh and 5,600mAh batteries, up to 80W flash charging, an IP69 rating, advanced camera systems, and an entire suite of AI features. Starting from $599, this isn’t just a new era for the Reno Series; it’s a new standard for the mid-range category.”

OPPO Reno13 Pro features and specs

The most expensive device in the range, the OPPO Reno13 Pro offers many of the standard features found across the whole Reno13 range, alongside more premium specs.

OPPO’s Reno13 series is built with durability in mind, with both the Reno 13 Pro and Reno13 featuring One-piece Sculpted Glass in the back with an aerospace-grade aluminium frame. The Pro includes a big 6.83-inch FHD+ AMOLED display, a refresh rate up to 120Hz, Ultra-Thin Bezels and a 93.8% screen-to-body ratio.

The Reno13 Pro also includes a IP69 water and dust resistance rating, which means the device can be submerged in a depth of up to two metres of freshwater for 30 minutes. Like the rest of the Reno13 range, the Reno13 Pro also supports underwater photography and videography with its Underwater Mode. It’s supported by physical button control for easy operation underwater, and to remove any water build-up in your device you can use the one-tap drainage mechanism.

You’ll get a MediaTek Dimensity 8350 processor for a smoother performance, agile gaming and support for AI features. The Reno13 Pro also features a AI Multi-Cooling System with an expanded Vapor Chamber (double the area when compared to previous Reno devices). You’ll also get 5G connectivity, ColorOS 15.0 (based on Android 15) and NFC support.

Backing up the powerful features is a big 5,800mAh battery with support of up to 80W SUPERVOOC fast charging, allowing you to charge up to 17% in five minutes or from 0% to 100% in around 48 minutes.

The Reno13 Pro has the most advanced camera setup of the three phones: it includes a 50MP main camera, 50MP telephoto camera and 8MP ultra-wide camera in the back, along with a 50MP front-facing selfie camera. You’ll also get a range of photo modes and AI editing features, including AI Unblur and AI Reflection Remover.

The Reno13 Pro includes 12GB of RAM and 512GB of internal storage. It’s available in Plume Purple with plume texture finish and Graphite Grey colour options and is the most expensive device of the range, retailing for $1,299 AUD. You’ll be able to pick up the OPPO Reno13 Pro from retailers including the OPPO online store, JB Hi-Fi, Harvey Norman and Officeworks.

Compare SIM-only plans for the OPPO Reno13 series

The OPPO Reno13 series is available to buy outright from retailers, but you’ll need to pair your device with a SIM-only plan. While there are plenty of cheap SIM-only phone plans available, you might want to look at a 5G mobile plan to take advantage of the 5G connectivity offered by the range, and the growing 5G mobile networks.
