The OPPO Reno16 F 5G is made for capturing the moments that make up your day. Your phone is always within reach, so it’s often the camera you pull out when something worth capturing happens. It’s also where you edit those shots and share them afterwards.
“The new OPPO Reno16 F 5G is here with a camera to show off,” says Liam Faurie, Head of Go-to-market and Operations at OPPO South Africa.
“People are doing so much more with their phone cameras than just taking photos, so we made this camera for creativity. We think that’s what consumers want from their smartphones today.”
Meet the OPPO Reno16 F 5G
The OPPO Reno16 F 5G’s camera system gives you flexibility, with different cameras giving you different ways to frame your shot. And you don’t have to bring extra gear with you, either.
A camera made for more moments
The four-camera setup gives you different ways to shoot.
The 50MP Ultra-Clear Main Camera handles everyday photos, while the 50MP 3.5x Telephoto Portrait Camera with an 85mm-equivalent focal length brings you closer to your subject.
Whether you’re trying to fit everyone into a holiday photo or capture more of the landscape, the 8MP Ultra-Wide Camera gives you room to work with. The 50MP Ultra-Wide Selfie Camera, with its 0.6x field of view, does the same for group selfies, while giving you more of the scene behind you.
Taking a photo is only part of the experience, though. Once you’ve snapped it, AI Portrait Glow and Natural Tone 2.0 smooth skin tones and balance lighting, while AI Remix Collage and Popout 2.0 give you more creative ways to play with an image before posting it.

POP Cam gives your photos a different feel, with vintage-inspired looks ranging from Y2K digicam to instant film.
Designed to be seen
Our clothes, bags and other accessories are all ways we express ourselves. So naturally, how a phone looks matters too. The Reno16 F 5G fits in just as easily with what you wear as it does with how you live.
The 3D Pop Planet design, inspired by the HoloVerse aesthetic, gives the Reno16 F 5G a textured, dimensional finish. It’s a phone made to be looked at, not left in a pocket, with a design that can either be subtle or make a statement, depending on your style.
Two distinct colourways give the Reno16 F 5G its own take on the planetary theme. Pop White keeps it sleek and understated, with an etched planet design on the back. Twilight Violet combines deep purple with star-like details around the camera module that catch the light as you move the phone.
Power that keeps up
A day of shooting and sharing content, while staying connected and streaming, can place heavy demands on your phone. The Reno16 F 5G’s 7,000mAh battery gives you the freedom to keep doing all of that without constantly checking how much charge you have left.
When you do need to plug in, 80W SUPERVOOC gets you back up quickly so you spend less time tied to a wall. You decide when to shoot and post, and the battery fits naturally into your day.
That freedom also extends beyond the battery. IP69K water and dust resistance means you can take the Reno16 F 5G wherever the moment takes you, while the 120Hz Smart Adaptive AMOLED display stays clear outdoors, even in bright conditions. The MediaTek Dimensity 7300 5G chipset and ColorOS 16 handle everything else behind the scenes.
