The OPPO Reno 15c entered the Indian market last month as a member of the wider Reno 15 family. It marks the first time the company has attached the letter “c” to a Reno device, and it also occupies the lowest rung in terms of price. When the phone was announced, its technical features and cost were made public, but buyers were told they would have to wait until February before it could be obtained. That waiting period has now passed. The device is available for pre-order across several online outlets, with the base variant priced at Rs 34,999.
Pre-Orders Go Live on Amazon, Flipkart, and OPPO Store Ahead of February 5 Sale Start
Pre-orders are being accepted on Amazon, Flipkart, and OPPO’s official online store. All three platforms list February 5 as the date from which sales formally begin. In practical terms, this allows customers to place an order immediately, though the phone itself will be delivered only after the release date.
Those purchasing through Amazon or Flipkart can receive an instant discount of up to Rs 3,500 when using selected debit or credit cards. The retailers are also offering no-cost EMI plans, along with exchange schemes for older devices. Beyond online channels, OPPO has confirmed that the Reno 15c will also be sold through physical retail stores, extending its availability to offline buyers.
OPPO Reno 15c Price in India: Two Variants and Two Color Choices
The Reno 15c is priced from Rs 34,999 for the entry version, which pairs 8GB of memory with 256GB of storage. A second variant, offering 12GB of RAM with the same storage capacity, is listed at Rs 37,999. Buyers may choose between two finishes, Afterglow Pink and Twilight Blue, both aimed at giving the device a restrained but modern appearance.
Display and Design Details
In the hand, the phone presents itself as relatively compact, built around a 6.57-inch AMOLED display with Full HD+ resolution. The screen supports a 120Hz refresh rate and reaches a peak brightness of 1,400 nits. Power is supplied by the Snapdragon 6 Gen 1 processor, a chip that is no longer new, and this may limit expectations of performance at this price level. The device ships with Android 16 and ColorOS 16, and it carries a full set of IP66, IP68, and IP69 ratings, offering strong protection against dust and water.
50MP Triple Rear Cameras Plus 50MP 4K Selfie Shooter
Photography is clearly one of the areas OPPO has chosen to emphasise. The rear camera system consists of three sensors: a 50MP main camera, an 8MP ultra-wide lens, and a 2MP macro unit. On the front, there is a 50MP camera that supports 4K video recording. A range of software features is included, such as Pop Out for combining images, AI Flash Photography 2.0, AI Portrait Glow, and AI Motion Photo Slo-mo. The arrangement is flexible and capable, though the lack of a dedicated telephoto lens may disappoint users who place a high value on optical zoom.
7,000mAh Capacity Paired with 80W SuperVOOC Fast Charging
The Reno 15c has a large 7,000mAh battery and 80W SuperVOOC fast charging, which puts a obvious focus on the stamina and daily reliability. This is one of the more practical strengths of the phone to users who appreciate having a phone that can last them long hours without having to pay attention to it all the time.
OPPO Expands the Range Beyond the Usual Two-Model Launch
Having the newest Reno line, OPPO has passed the stage of the two-model launch and offered four distinct devices. In this extended range, the Reno 15c is at the lower end of the price range, being a substitute to the more expensive Reno 15 and Reno 15 Pro. It is accompanied by the Reno 15 Pro Mini, which performs the task of a smaller and more focused flagship. Collectively, these models demonstrate an attempt to address multiple price points in the high-end mid-range, instead of having a single and limited product.
The Reno 15c as a device is aesthetically pleasing and is constructed with a clear focus on durability. It will probably be appealing to consumers who value the quality of the camera, stable battery life, and a size that feels balanced. Meanwhile, the customers who are mainly interested in raw performance might find more value in other options of the segment, and would be well served to consider other options like the Redmi Note 15 Pro+ or the OPPO K13 Turbo.
Final Words
The OPPO Reno 15c is now available in India, with a huge battery, a camera system that is ambitious enough to make you believe you are a professional photographer and a price tag that will not make you sell a kidney. It costs Rs 34,999, and it is the cheapest Reno that OPPO has to offer, with that confidence-inspiring IP69 rating.
Admittedly, the Snapdragon 6 Gen 1 is not precisely burning benchmark charts, but in case you are the kind of person who prefers to spend a full day without worrying about battery life, this phone can hear you out. Be it the c denoting compact, capable or even choice, OPPO has delivered a good mid-ranger that puts more emphasis on endurance and style rather than speed alone.
