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
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
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
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.

As the Official Smartphone Product Partner of
the UEFA Champions League, OPPO has been investing in the development of
football culture both on and off the pitch. Through programs like local pitch
renovations, equipment donations, and professional training courses, OPPO is
providing the support and resources for young footballers from countries
including Brazil, Egypt, and Mexico to pursue their football dreams and reach
their potential.
Guided by its vision of becoming a sustainable
company that contributes to a better world, OPPO will continue to advance
sustainable development through technological innovation, creating a resilient
technological ecosystem with global partners. Learn more about OPPO's
