By From capturing golden-hour beach moments and vibing to AmaPiano on a road trip to lazy Sunday feasts with seven colours, the all-new OPPO Reno13 Series is designed to keep up with every moment – even the ones underwater!
Blending sleek style with unmatched durability, the Reno13 Series introduces caseless underwater photography—a game-changer that lets you snap poolside selfies, record ocean dives, and even text with wet hands, no waterproof cover needed.
An Unforgettable Launch with SA’s Trendsetters
To celebrate the arrival of the Reno13 Series, OPPO hosted an innovative launch event curated by Another Zero, turning the experience into an interactive playground that showcased the phone’s cutting-edge features in unexpected ways. Guests, including Primo9teen, Grace Mondlana, Ryan Smith, Sibusiso Kotelo and TV presenter Lerai Rakoditsoe, got to experience the device’s AI-enhanced camera, water resistance, and powerful battery life firsthand.
From edible invites ahead of the launch; to a day of lively, hands-on engagement, a perfect blend of tech and lifestyle. Dweezy set the vibe with an electrifying DJ set, ensuring the experience was as dynamic as the Reno13 itself.
Built for the Unexpected—From Everyday Splashes to Full Submersion
Ever dropped your phone in the sink while bingeing Young, Famous & African? Or had your toddler toss it into the bath right after you upgraded to YouTube Premium? The Reno13 Series is built for real life.
With IP66, IP68, and IP69 water-resistance ratings, it can handle everyday spills, rainstorms, and even underwater adventures. Whether you’re caught in a Joburg downpour, hiking in Cape Town’s unpredictable weather, or just enjoying a soak after a long day, this smartphone is as resilient as you are.
Capture Every Moment—Even Underwater
Most phones struggle with underwater shots – blurry images, distorted colours, and fogged-up lenses. Not the Reno13. With AI Magic Mode, the Reno13 Series automatically adjusts lighting, contrast, and sharpness, making crystal-clear underwater photography possible without extra gear.
Battery Life That Keeps Up With You
Your phone should last as long as you do. The Reno13 5G is powered by a 5,600mAh battery and 80W SUPERVOOC™ Flash Charge, getting you 50% battery in just 22 minutes and a full charge in only 47 minutes. No more scrambling for a charger mid-adventure or watching your phone die when you need it most.
For social media lovers, AI Motion brings photos to life with dynamic three-second clips -turning a still sunset snap into a mesmerizing timelapse with no editing required.
Designed for the South African Lifestyle
From biking along Durban’s Golden Mile to coffee runs in Joburg’s trendiest cafés, South Africans are always on the move. The Reno13 Series is built to match that energy – with a durable yet stylish design, AI-enhanced photography, and industry-leading water resistance.
Avashnee Moodley, Head of Marketing at OPPO South Africa, explains:
“The Reno13 Series isn’t just about innovation – it’s about helping people capture and enjoy life’s best moments, no matter where they are. Whether you’re a content creator, an outdoor explorer, or someone who wants a phone they can rely on, this device delivers.”
