Oppo is gearing up to introduce its Reno 15 lineup in India, with the series expected to focus heavily on enhanced imaging, performance stability and creator-friendly tools. The smartphone, which has already been launched in China, is anticipated to reach the Indian market in the coming weeks although the company has not yet shared an official date.

Expected price range in India

Industry estimates suggest the standard Oppo Reno 15 will fall in the upper-mid price bracket. While the Reno 15 Pro was launched in China at CNY 3,699 (roughly Rs 46,000), the Reno 15 base model is expected to be more affordable, likely between Rs 32,000 and Rs 38,000, depending on RAM and storage configurations.

Expected features and specifications

The Reno 15 series is expected to highlight Oppo’s improvements in sustained performance, camera capabilities and thermal management. Globally, the models run on ColorOS 16 and feature advanced cooling, particularly aimed at gaming and continuous live-streaming use.

For India, the upcoming Oppo Reno 15 is likely to offer:

• A high-refresh-rate AMOLED display
• Triple-camera setup with a primary sensor optimized for better low-light clarity
• Secondary wide-angle and portrait cameras
• Front camera with autofocus and AI-led enhancements for live streaming
• Around 5,000mAh battery with fast wired charging support
• AI-driven system optimization for smoother long-term performance
  

Design-wise, it is expected to follow the Reno 15 Pro’s flat-frame style, offering a slim profile, improved durability and brighter display output. With growing demand for creator-focused smartphones in the country, the Reno 15 is being positioned for users interested in mobile photography, vlogging and gaming.

India produced a strong bowling comeback in the third ODI at the Dr. Y.S. Rajasekhara Reddy ACA-VDCA Cricket Stadium, Visakhapatnam, restricting South Africa to 270 after the visitors looked set for a much bigger total. Pacer Prasidh Krishna and spinner Kuldeep Yadav shared four wickets each, dismantling the Proteas’ middle and lower order. India now need 271 to win the match and clinch the series.

Prasidh Krishna triggers collapse after early struggle

Despite being hit for three sixes in his first two overs, Prasidh Krishna responded remarkably in his second spell. Backed strongly by head coach Gautam Gambhir and captain KL Rahul, the pacer removed Matthew Breetzke and Aiden Markram in the same over before dismissing centurion Quinton de Kock, who top-scored with a fluent 106. He later bowled Ottneil Baartman to finish with figures of 4/66.

His timely breakthroughs halted a South African surge that once appeared to be heading toward 350.

Kuldeep Yadav shines again with lower-order demolition

Kuldeep Yadav’s spell proved decisive in the final phase of the innings. The left-arm wrist-spinner dismantled the lower middle order, dismissing Dewald Brevis, Marco Jansen, Corbin Bosch and Lungi Ngidi to return impressive figures of 4/41.

His tight overs, combined with pressure created by Ravindra Jadeja, ensured the visitors were unable to accelerate at the death.

Rohit Sharma, Virat Kohli stand out in the field

India’s fielding was sharp, with Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli taking key catches and saving crucial runs. A sharp catch from Rohit and several athletic efforts kept the South African batters in check.

South Africa lose steam despite de Kock’s century

Quinton de Kock’s 106 kept the Proteas afloat early in the innings, but the team collapsed after his dismissal. From a dominant position, South Africa slipped to 270 all out in 47.5 overs, leaving the door open for India to take control of the series.

India must chase successfully to avoid a second straight ODI series defeat.
