Additionally, a 50MP front-facing camera caters to high-resolution selfies.
Battery specifications differ between the two models; the Reno 15 Pro is equipped with a 6,500mAh battery, while the Reno 15 has a 6,200mAh battery, supporting 80W charging. The global variant of the Reno 15 Pro will offer configurations of 12GB RAM with either 256GB or 512GB of internal storage.

In China, the Oppo Reno 15 starts at CNY 2,999 (approximately INR37,000) for the base model, while the Reno 15 Pro begins at CNY 3,699 (around INR46,000).
