NeoTeo's verdict

Which of the two is the better buy

The Oppo Reno16 F is the more complete choice for camera, performance, connectivity and battery: it adds a telephoto camera, higher Geekbench results and 7,000 mAh. The Reno15 FS makes more sense for 512GB of storage or a slimmer body.

The Reno16 F pairs the MediaTek Dimensity 7300 with 12GB of RAM, scoring 1,026 in Geekbench 6 Single-Core and 2,932 in Multi-Core; the Reno15 FS uses the Qualcomm Snapdragon 6 Gen 1, 8GB and scores 943 and 2,748. The camera lead also goes to the Reno16 F: it has a telephoto camera, a CMOS BSI main sensor and an f/2 front aperture, while the Reno15 FS has no telephoto camera, a CMOS sensor and f/2.1.

The Reno16 F has 7,000 mAh and 75 h per charge cycle, versus 6,500 mAh and 67 h for the Reno15 FS; both support 80W charging. Bluetooth 5.4 is newer than Bluetooth 5.1, and the Reno16 F adds a Dual Nano-SIM + eSIM configuration; the Reno15 FS retains an infrared port. The Reno15 FS is slimmer at 8.1 mm versus 8.4 mm and offers 512GB versus 256GB. Its stated water resistance reaches 2 m, compared with 1.5 m for the Reno16 F.
