Step by step

1. 

   Open Sound & vibration

   Open Settings.

   Done

   Tap Vibration intensity

   In silent mode, only the alarm intensity can be set.

   Done

3. 

   Drag the sliders

   Calls & alarms and Messages & notifications. Tap outside the panel or Cancel to close.

   Done

4. 

   For touch feedback, tap Haptics

   Scroll down; O-Haptics brings true-to-life haptic feedback.

   Done

5. 

   Set Haptic intensity

   Drag the slider. System haptics must be on.

   Done

If you do not see this option

• Sliders greyed out? In Silent mode, as on ours, the row says vibration intensity can only be set for alarms. Choose Ring or Vibrate at the top first.

  

• No Haptics page on an older phone? OPPO gives the touch vibration switch as Sound & Vibration, Haptics and tones, System haptics on ColorOS 12 and later, More sounds & haptics, Vibrate on touch on ColorOS 11, and a Vibrate on Touch switch on ColorOS 3.1 to 7.2.

• No vibration on taps at all? Turn on System haptics on the Haptics page. Source: How to Turn Off Vibrate on Touch on OPPO Phones

  

If this does not work

• Vibration weaker than before? OPPO suggests checking that app's notification settings, Silent and Do Not Disturb, and taking off a thick case, which can absorb vibration. If it never vibrates, have the motor checked at a service centre. Source: Why Is My OPPO Phone Vibrating Less Than Before?
• Notifications vibrate softly in videos and games? That is Reduce notification feedback, in Notifications & Quick Settings, More settings: in full-screen apps, sounds are softer and vibration is less strong.
• Some apps ignore it? The page says third-party apps are not supported by System haptics.

About this guide

The screenshots are from our OPPO Reno13 5G, the European model CPH2689, with ColorOS 16.0.5 and Android 16 (build CPH2689_16.0.5.1001(EX01)), in Dark mode. We opened the settings and changed nothing.

Good to know

To change the sound too, change the ringtone.

To silence everything, turn on Do Not Disturb.

In short: Settings, Sound & vibration, Vibration intensity, and Haptics.
