OPPO India redefines smartphone durability and network reliability with the OPPO F29 Series, the true Durable Champion. Built for India and tested in India, the F29 Series combines world-class engineering, military-grade toughness, superior connectivity, and powerful battery performance, all packed into a slim and elegant design that’s ready for every challenge — from bustling city streets to rugged terrains.

Engineered for India, Tested for India

The OPPO F29 Series, which boasts industry-leading dust and liquid protection—is designed to endure India’s diverse and demanding environments, from Kerala’s monsoons and Rajasthan’s scorching heat to Kashmir’s biting cold.

Tested in India by SGS (Société Générale de Surveillance), Bengaluru, against the highest IP66, IP68, and IP69 standards, the F29 Series is the toughest smartphone in its segment. Its IP66 rating certifies it against powerful water jets; ideal for users who work in wet conditions, from vendors to construction workers. The IP68 rating endorses it for submersion in 1.5metres of water for 30 minutes; this means it is built to survive accidental drops in water-filled potholes and kitchen sinks, while its IP69 rating implies it can endure high-pressure, high-temperature water jets up to 80°C, making it perfect for those working in industrial settings or extremely humid weather conditions.

The F29 Series takes liquid resistance even further to offer enhanced protection against heavy rain, river water, hot springs, daily spills from juice, tea, milk, coffee, beer, household liquids such as steam, dishwater, detergent, and even exposure to ice water, cleaning foam, and muddy water. And after submersion, it emits a unique pulsating sound to drain water from the speaker.

Savio D’Souza, Head of Product Communications at OPPO India, said:

“The OPPO F29 Series is built for India — a true Durable Champion that blends strength, connectivity, and performance. From its industry-best IP ratings and military-grade toughness to our revolutionary Hunter Antenna and massive batteries — every aspect is engineered to support India’s road warriors. All this power, packed into a slim, stylish device, sets a new benchmark in the segment.”

Built Tough — 360° Armour Body and Military-Grade Durability

Every inch of the F29 Series is crafted to protect. Its 360° Armour Body features Sponge Bionic Cushioning to absorb shocks from accidental drops. It is engineered with an elevated battery cover made out of fibreglass and reinforced side frames for structural strength, as well as a Strengthened Lens Protection Ring to guard the camera. Protection for the device is extended to the cover in the box with its Raised Corner Design that comes with extra padding to shield the corners, and a slight overlap over the screen to protect it from direct impacts.

The F29 Series is further strengthened by an aerospace-grade AM04 aluminium alloy frame that enhances durability by 10% over its predecessor. Tested against 14 rigorous Military Standard (MIL-STD-810H-2022) challenges—from extreme temperatures and rain to shock, dust, salt mist, and vibrations—the F29 Series is built to survive where others fail.

Powerful Antennas — Built for Road Warriors

Connectivity is non-negotiable, especially for India’s road warriors. The OPPO F29 Series debuts OPPO’s exclusive Hunter Antenna Architecture to deliver a massive 300% boost in signal strength — ideal for remote areas, highways, underpasses and even basement parking.

Its advanced symmetrical low-frequency antenna layout ensures minimal signal loss, whether you are on a call or streaming content. With all-around 84.5% antenna coverage—the largest in the segment—it keeps you connected when you are playing games or watching videos in horizontal mode. Its TÜV Rheinland certification bears witness to stable, reliable network performance wherever the road takes you.

Slim, Powerful, and Efficient — Engineering Marvel

Despite this rugged toughness, the F29 Series is an engineering marvel, packing immense power in a slim, stylish design. The OPPO F29 is 7.65mm thin and weighs as less as 185g, with a Flat AMOLED screen, 120Hz refresh rate, and 93.7% screen-to-body ratio. Both smartphones deliver immersive visuals with 10-bit colour depth and 1200 nits peak brightness, perfect for gaming, streaming, or working outdoors.

The OPPO F29 Pro, on the other hand is 7.55mm thin, weighs a mere 180g, and flaunts a 6.7-inch Quad-Curved Infinite View AMOLED display with 120Hz refresh rate and 93.5% screen-to-body ratio for borderless viewing.

Its Ultra Volume Mode boosts audio 300% to ensure you never miss a notification or a phone call even when in crowded areas like malls or when stuck in traffic.

Both models come with a Hands-Free Mode that auto switches to speakerphone with its volume maxed, along with Glove Mode and Splash Touch so you can use the touchscreen with wet or gloved hands.

Massive Batteries, Fast Charging — Built for the Long Haul

The F29 Series sets a new benchmark by introducing—for the first time in the F Series—a large 6500mAh 45W SUPERVOOC™ fast-charging battery on the F29 base model and a whopping 6000mAh 80W SUPERVOOC™ fast-charging battery on the Pro version

Both smartphone models support Reverse Charging—the first in this price point—and come with a 5-year battery life (tested in OPPO labs).

Even in extreme environments, OPPO’s battery performance does not falter. From scorching 43°C heat to freezing -20°C temperatures, charging remains safe, efficient, and reliable.

Performance that Keeps Up

Under the hood, the OPPO F29 is powered by the Snapdragon 6 Gen 1 that built for HDR visuals and 60+ fps gameplay, while the OPPO F29 Pro runs on the MediaTek Dimensity 7300 Energy chipset that is optimised for power efficiency and gaming.

Both models run on ColorOS 15 (based on Android 15), and support 2 years of OS updates with 3 years of security patches to guarantee long-term performance.

AI-Powered Camera with Creative Freedom

For those who love snapping pictures, OPPO has introduced an Underwater Photography mode in the F29 Series, so you can even take this smartphone into the pool with you to capture fun holiday moments. Indeed, users can capture life’s moments, whether rain or shine, above ground or underwater with the 50MP Main, 2MP Depth and 16MP Selfie cameras on the OPPO F29 and the OPPO F29 Pro.

Price & Availability

The OPPO F29 will be available in a premium Solid Purple that exudes royal confidence, and a Glacier Blue colour inspired by a crisp, icy blue that is reminiscent of India’s serene mountain landscapes. While the F29 5G will be available in two variants: INR 23999/25999 for 8GB+12GB and 8GB+256GB variants, respectively OPPO E-store, Flipkart, Amazon and mainline retail outlet from 27th March.

The OPPO F29 Pro, on the other hand, will be available in two colours: Marble White, inspired by sunlight reflecting off pristine marble to offer a sophisticated yet rugged aesthetic, and Granite Black with its bold, textured black finish for cool sophistication. The F29 Pro 5G will be priced at Rs. 27999/29999/31999 for the 8GB + 128GB, 8GB + 256G, 12GB + 256GB variants, respectively will be available on OPPO E-store, Flipkart, Amazon and mainline retail outlet from 1st April.
