The '''HTC Typhoon''' is a [smartphone](/source/smartphone) that runs the [Microsoft](/source/Microsoft) [Windows Mobile](/source/Windows_Mobile) [operating system](/source/operating_system). The phone is manufactured by Taiwanese [HTC Corporation](/source/HTC_Corporation) (HTC). At the time when the Typhoon was made, HTC was not in the business of selling devices to end-users.  Instead, the company had many partners who would rebrand and distribute its devices.

It is based on the [ARM](/source/ARM_architecture) [Texas Instruments OMAP](/source/Texas_Instruments_OMAP) 730 processor running at 200&nbsp;MHz. It has 32 [MB](/source/Megabyte) internal [RAM](/source/RAM) and 64 MB of [flash ROM](/source/flash_memory), and is expandable via a [miniSD](/source/miniSD) slot. It has a [TFT](/source/TFT_LCD) display with 65,536 colours at a resolution of 176x220.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://stellatech.com/en/htc-typhoon-display-lcd,a,200001.html/|title=HTC Typhoon - Display LCD|website=stellatech.com|access-date=2019-03-09|archive-date=2023-02-18|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20230218012652/https://stellatech.com/en/htc-typhoon-display-lcd,a,200001.html/|url-status=live}}</ref>

It runs [Microsoft](/source/Microsoft) [Windows Mobile 2003 SE](/source/Windows_Mobile) as its [operating system](/source/operating_system), however it is also capable of running [Windows Mobile 5.0](/source/Windows_Mobile) after a version was leaked onto the internet. It supports [Java](/source/Java_(programming_language)) applications.  Additionally, hacked, or "cooked" versions of [Windows Mobile 6](/source/Windows_Mobile), [6.1](/source/Windows_Mobile) and [6.5](/source/Windows_Mobile) have circulated on the internet.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.engadget.com/products/htc/typhoon/|title=HTC Typhoon review|website=Engadget|language=en|access-date=2019-03-09|archive-date=2017-10-06|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20171006012713/https://www.engadget.com/products/htc/typhoon/|url-status=dead}}</ref>
