Oppo’s Reno series has always lived in
that sweet spot between style and
substance. And with the Reno 155G, it
clearly knows what it wants to be. It
doesn’t chase numbers or specs just for
bragging rights. Instead, it focuses on
refinement, visual quality, and cameras.
The big question is whether those
strengths are enough to justify its
price, especially in a very competitive
mid-range to premium space. I’m your
host CJ, and let’s break it down. Our
review unit comes in the Aurora white
colorway and visually this is a really
clean looking phone. The finish is
smooth and elegant and it looks premium
from almost any angle. It also fits well
with OPPO’s more lifestyle focused
branding. In the hand, however, that
same smoothness means the phone can feel
a bit slippery during extended use,
especially one-handed. You become very
aware that a case would be a good idea.
Thankfully, it does come with a rubber
case. Not because the phone feels weak,
but because you want to preserve it like
you do with any other device. What makes
the design more impressive is how Oppo
managed to fit a 6,500 millia battery
into a body that remains under 8 mm
thick, which is fairly thin and also
light, weighing 197 g. For extra peace
of mind, it’s IP69 rated for protection
against dust and water submersion. And
to add, the front is protected by
Corning Gorilla Glass 7i. Overall, the
Reno 155G looks and feels premium and as
it should at this price point. The
design does the job well, but it also
sets expectations high for what the
phone should deliver elsewhere. The
display is one of the key highlights of
the Operino 155G, and it shows almost
immediately. The 6.59 in AMOLED panel
looks sharp, vibrant, and clean, while
the 120 Hz refresh rate makes daily
interactions feel smooth and responsive.
Tesk is crisp, icons look refined, and
small details are easy to appreciate
whether you’re reading articles or
playing games. Animations are fluid,
scrolling feels effortless, and the
overall UI experience benefits greatly
from this level of smoothness. It’s the
kind of display that feels good to use
even when you’re just doom scrolling on
social media or watching videos.
Brightness is another strong point, but
up to 1200 nits in high mode brightness.
Outdoor visibility is reliable even
under direct sunlight. Looking at the
screen outside doesn’t feel like a
compromise, which adds to the phone’s
premium appeal build. The large AMOLED
screen pairs well with stereo speakers
that deliver clear and balanced audio.
While bass is not especially deep,
vocals remain clear and distortion is
well controlled at higher volumes. For
streaming, YouTube, and casual gaming,
the experience is immersive and
satisfying. Despite this, biometrics are
handled by an indisplay optical
fingerprint scanner that is quick and
consistent. Face unlock is also
available and works well in good
lighting. Nothing groundbreaking here,
but everything works as expected.
Cameras are the second major highlight
of the Reno 15. This is where the phone
starts to feel like it’s pushing closer
to premium territory. The 50 megapixel
main camera delivers sharp images with
pleasing colors and solid dynamic range.
Daylight photos look clean and detailed
with good contrast and minimal noise.
The processing leans towards natural
looking results other than an overly
saturated shots which works well for
social media and casual photography.
What really separates the Reno 15 from
many competitors is the 50 megapixel
telephoto camera. Having a dedicated
telephoto lens at this price point adds
real versatility. Zoom shots up to seven
times remain clear provided you are
shooting in well-lit environments. This
makes the phone far more useful for
portraits, street photography, and
casual zoom shots than devices that rely
purely on digital zoom. The 50 megapixel
front camera captures sharp images with
good skin tone reproduction and plenty
of detail, delivering results that feel
polished without excessive beauty
processing. Low light performance is
respectable rather than exceptional, but
still competitive within its segment.
Get colors and if you see for details,
there you go.
This is the Operino 155G shooting at 4K
at 60 frames per second using the front
camera. So, this is what it looks like.
Here’s here’s what it looks like if I’m
walking. So, what do you guys think? Let
us know in the comment section below.
Overall, the camera system feels
versatile, reliable, and clearly
positioned as a selling point. It may
not outperform true flagship camera
phones, but it offers more flexibility
than most mid-range devices, which can
help justify its pricing. Powering the
Reno 155G is the Snapdragon 7 Gen 4
combined with up to 12 GB of RAM and 256
GB of internal storage. In everyday use,
the phone feels fast and responsive. App
launches are quick, multitasking is
smooth, and navigating the interface
feels effortless. For gaming, we tested
the phone using Ark Knight’s Enfield, a
newer and more demanding title. By
default, the game runs on the lowest
graphics settings, but despite that,
gameplay remains smooth and stable.
Frame rates are consistent, and even
during extended sessions, the phone
maintains performance without severe
throttling. In benchmarks, the Reno 15
scored around 1.4 million on Antut2
version 11, which places it firmly in
strong mid-range territory. You can see
the rest of our benchmark scores here.
Performance here is balanced rather than
aggressive. It feels reliable and
consistent, but at this price point,
some users may expect more raw power,
especially for gaming. During the 155G
runs Color OS 16, the continuous Oppo’s
trend of delivering a polished and
featurerich interface. Animations are
smooth. Transitions feel refined and
customization options are plentiful.
Multitasking features like split screen
and floating windows work well on the
large display, making the phone useful
for productivity and casual work.
Pre-installed apps are present and
manageable, and most can be removed if
you prefer a cleaner experience. Color
OS feels mature and stable, offering
plenty of features without becoming
overwhelming. It complements the
hardware nicely and contributes to the
phone’s overall premium feel.
Connectivity options are well covered as
well with support for 5G, Wi-Fi 6,
Bluetooth 5.4, NFC, and even an infrared
remote or an IR blaster. Battery life is
anchored by the large 6,500 mAh battery,
which delivers strong endurance for
moderate users. Heavy users who game or
stream extensively may need a quick top
up from time to time, but overall
longevity is respectable. Charging is
handled by 80 W SuperVU wired support,
which significantly reduces downtime.
Even short charging sessions provide a
meaningful boost, making daily use more
convenient. There’s also bypass charging
support here. If the battery ever drops
low while you’re playing a game, for
example, then the bypass charging
feature comes in clutch, so that’s a
nice addition. So, after spending time
with the Oppo Reno 155G, it’s indeed a
phone built around polish, visuals, and
camera versatility. Its display and
camera system are clearly its strongest
assets, offering a premium experience
that stands out in daily use. Design
quality is great, performance is decent
enough, and battery life is solid.
However, all of this comes at a hefty
price. At 36,999
pesos for the 12 GB plus 256 GB variant,
the Reno 155G sits in a space where
competition becomes very tough. If you
value a great display, flexible cameras,
and a refined user experience over raw
gaming power, then the Reno 15 makes
sense. But if you care more about
high-end gaming performance, this phone
may not be a match for you. On the
bright side, this phone is for you if
you’re all about style, premium feel,
and pretty good camera capabilities.
Ultimately, the choice is always yours.
