Mobile gaming has become more than just entertainment—it’s a competitive arena where every second counts.

With the Reno13 series, OPPO is raising the stakes, delivering a smartphone that blends power, speed, and intelligent design to keep up with gamers’ demands.

From advanced cooling to game-optimised connectivity, the Reno13 series promises a smoother, more immersive gaming experience.

Cooler, faster, longer: thermal upgrades for peak performance

Nothing disrupts gameplay like overheating, and OPPO has tackled this head-on with a vapour chamber (VC) cooling area measuring 4,364 mm²—twice the size of its predecessor.

This means better heat dissipation, preventing lag and ensuring the device runs at peak performance even during extended battles.

To make gameplay even more comfortable, OPPO Frame Partition Technology has been introduced to keep heat away from the user’s hands.

Now, marathon gaming sessions feel smoother—not just on screen, but in hand as well.

Smarter signals: AI LinkBoost 2.0 for uninterrupted gaming

A weak connection can be the difference between victory and defeat.

The Reno13F 5G tackles lag and dropped connections with a 360-degree surround antenna system featuring 10 integrated antennas—ensuring strong signal reception no matter how the phone is held.

Further enhancing connectivity, AI LinkBoost 2.0 uses a network priority algorithm and intelligent multi-antenna switching to deliver a 175 per cent boost in cellular performance and 35 per cent lower gaming latency.

Whether in an underground parking lot or deep in the countryside, the low-frequency antenna upgrade ensures signals stay strong in weak coverage areas, while an accelerator reduces lag when approaching the edge of a base station’s coverage.

Fine-tuned for top games: optimised performance for Mobile Legends and PUBG Mobile

To make every tap, swipe, and move count, OPPO has collaborated with top game developers, including Mobile Legends: Bang Bang and PUBG Mobile (global version).

These partnerships allow the Reno13 series to adapt performance in real-time for specific gaming scenarios.

A good example is during intense Mobile Legends: Bang Bang team fights, the Reno13 series boosts power to maintain smooth visuals and ultra-responsive controls, giving players an edge in battle.

In everyday gaming, it balances stable frame rates and power efficiency, so users can game longer without draining battery life.

Adaptive Frame Booster: the secret to ultra-smooth gameplay

At the heart of the Reno13 series’ performance is OPPO’s Adaptive Frame Booster, a system-level enhancement that ensures games run smoother, faster, and more efficiently.

This reduces frame drops, keeps animations fluid, and provides a more immersive experience—giving gamers the confidence to play freely, without frustrating interruptions.

Where to get it

For those ready to level up their mobile gaming experience, the Reno13 series is available nationwide and on e-commerce platforms, starting at Sh37,999 recommended retail price (RRP).
