OPPO has released its 2024 Sustainability Report, marking its fifth consecutive year of publishing the annual report. OPPO announces in the report that the company has reached the peak of carbon emissions across its own operations in 2022, two years ahead of its original climate target. As a global technology company with operations spanning over 70 countries and regions, OPPO ranks as the world’s fourth largest smartphone brand for four consecutive years. The report also outlines OPPO’s efforts and achievements in building a more inclusive and sustainable future by focusing on the following five areas: virtuous innovation, environmental protection, ecosystem engagement, operations and compliance, and caring for employees. Driven by its brand renewal – “Make Your Moment”, OPPO will propel sustainability forward to create meaningful impact through green innovation and responsible technology.
Making its Operation and Products Greener BOLD
Following its 2023 commitment to achieving carbon peak by 2024 and carbon neutral by 2050 across its own operations, OPPO has been actively exploring new models for reducing emission intensity. Many initiatives have shown results, with OPPO's operational carbon emissions falling in both 2023 and 2024. OPPO achieved a 3.2% year-on-year reduction in Scope 1 & 2 emissions in 2024, equivalent to the annual sequestration capacity of about 514,320 mature trees. By mobilizing its supply chain partners, OPPO reduced Scope 3 emissions by 9.3% compared to the previous year.
Beyond carbon reduction efforts, OPPO also implements green management practices across the entire lifecycle of its products. In 2024, OPPO implemented lightweight packaging design across its entire smartphone product line, reducing paper consumption by 10 tons per million units—equivalent to preserving approximately 200 trees. The company also adopts recycled materials made from plant residues such as sugarcane and bamboo to replace traditional paper materials. In Europe, the proportion of recycled material content in mobile phone box packaging increased from 45% to 55%. Furthermore, OPPO integrates innovative engineering solutions to improve the durability of its products. The OPPO A3 Pro, for example, uses Damage-proof 360° Armour Body to improve drop protection and enhance everyday durability.

Virtuous Innovation Simplifies Daily Lives BOLD
OPPO maintains technology and innovation as a strategic priority, with a global portfolio of over 113,000 patent applications, with 91% of them being invention patents. Driven by its brand mission "Technology for Mankind, Kindness for the World", OPPO is committed to making technology accessible to everyone. OPPO has also introduced AI functions across its entire smartphone product line, bringing over 100 AI features to 50 million users worldwide. Through its commitment to inclusive innovation, OPPO has developed accessibility features including real-time speech-to-text conversion, content magnification, and adaptive color correction, empowering users with hearing or visual impairments to fully engage with digital technology.
Health is another area where OPPO is leveraging its extensive resources and innovation to create more user-centric products and experiences. OPPO smartwatches integrate the proprietary “Health Insights” feature, which uses sensor data and AI algorithms to monitor vital signs like heart rate, blood pressure, blood oxygen saturation, and sleep in real time. Combined with temperature change analysis, sleep quality analysis, and other features, the OPPO smartwatches provide users with personalized health risk evaluation and suggestions. Notably, OPPO’s AI-powered blood pressure classification algorithm enables continuous, unobtrusive hypertension risk assessment – particularly for young/middle-aged essential hypertension cases. This constitutes the world’s largest real-world study on unobtrusive blood pressure risk prediction.

Engaging with Local Communities as Corporate Citizen BOLD
In 2024, OPPO donated more than 450 million RMB to social and public welfare organizations, implementing a range of initiatives in areas such as environment, culture, sports and education that help to build more sustainable communities.
In collaboration with Discovery Channel, OPPO has launched the Culture in a Shot Initiative since 2024, which aims to showcase the cultural diversity through imaging technology. With its theme "Portraits of Legacy" in 2024 and “Celebrate the Moment” in 2025, the initiative spotlights inheritors of intangible cultural heritage, and stories of festivals as well as celebrations across 15 countries. In 2024, OPPO also partnered with the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) to donate 1,000 OPPO tablets, supporting youth education and cultural development in Africa and Asia.
