Some of the rugged phones under water have better audio fedality than Timmy. Love the old flip concept for a camera. I am a sucker for a gimmick or something odd. Torque cruhes Timmy.

The QR Code reads '20141103'. Judging by the '2014', it probably is the manufacturing date of the battery or the phone itself. Kinda weird how they went to the effort of creating a QR Code just for the date instead of actually printing the date itself. Oh, and the retail price for the Timmy M9 was, supposedly, 130 american bucks.

I have an M7 one of these. Its identical inside with that horrible sim slot but the swivly camera has a bigger speaker grill and is only 5mp. Its also got malware baked into the rom (the SMS and dialer apps are trying to connect to servers in China and have ALL the permissions, Avast flagged up this unpleasantness very quickly. Apart from M7 it has no branding anywhere, which is odd. Its running the same android 4.4.2 as the M9 but cant be rooted with any tools I could find (probably to stop the removal of said malware).

I actually had a similar phone back in the day, except it ran on an MT6572 with just 512MB of RAM. It's called the X-BO V5 but it was also sold under various (counterfeit) brands like Oppo and Sony. I made a short video of it on my channel.

My prior comment got nuked by the automod and I don't feel like retyping it. The short version: Google made a movie editor for Android 3 called "Movie Studio". It survived in stock Android until Android 4.3. 4.4 Kit-Kat phones weren't supposed to have it. My Moto E1 didn't have it. That said; I could see some manufacturers who maybe weren't quite so tightly enmeshed with Google including the Jellybean version because why not? Or, perhaps, MediaTek made their own video editing software to replace Google's, which they offered as part of their own app suite to companies that use their chips? Everything I owned back then that ran Kit-Kat had a Snapdragon SoC, so I don't know.
