How to Factory Reset an OPPO Reno 15 via Settings

Preparing for a Factory Reset

• ⚠️ Before proceeding with a factory reset on your OPPO Reno 15, it's crucial to back up all important data, including photos, videos, music, and documents.
• 💡 The video strongly advises against using Google backup due to its limitations in backing up non-monetizable data, apps not from the Play Store, and exceeding storage limits.

OPPO's Recommended Backup Solutions

• 🚀 Clone Phone (or similar apps like Backup & Migrate) is presented as a superior method for transferring data, especially between devices from the same parent company (Oppo, Vivo, OnePlus, Realme).
• 🛠️ For cross-brand transfers (e.g., Oppo to Samsung), use brand-specific apps like Samsung's Smart Switch.
• 📦 A local backup option is available, which can save data to a USB drive, including apps, settings, messages, and contacts, without picking about the source of applications.

Performing the Factory Reset

• ⚙️ Navigate to Settings > System & Update > Backup & Reset to begin the reset process.
• 📱 When prompted to reset the phone, you'll have the option to erase all data.
• 📶 You can choose to retain your eSIM profile or remove it during the reset, which is a key consideration if you plan to transfer the device or if it's running slow.
• ✅ Confirm the 'Erase All Data' option to initiate the reset, which will take approximately one minute to complete.
