Planning to buy a new phone for my dad. He's a gamer on candy crush sort of.
Looking at octa core, 4gb ram, 64 gb rom. Price between 600 to 800 range. battery life must be good as he often play game.
any phone suggestion?

Please buy bigger screen, they want bigger screen and louder speaker. And also you may want to consider Axon7 with dual facing speaker. As my father once complaint his phone (Samsung J5) sound not high enough to be heard.

Cause i'm afraid the longer time he use the phone it will be more lagging and then complaint again.. hmm Definitely bigger screen for him. Oh, thanks for reminding on the speaker problem, will put in consideration as well..

But you need to teach him not to simply install apps and don't get shocked for seeing "Your phone have viruses, click now to scan virus" ads. Then your father phone is good to go for years.
