Don't forget miniB USB before the microB.

It went: proprietary-->open standard MiniB-->open standard MicroB-->open standard C.

On iPhone: proprietary 30pin-->proprietary Lightning

Mini USB was a dark dark time. Please don't bring up those bad memories.

Hahahahahhahaha!!! I was actually thinking how bad those times were in tech hahaha

I didn't forget it, I just have never seen a phone with mini USB. I've still actually got some devices that use it, but never a phone.

Not doubting that they exist, but I was very explicitly comparing my own personal experience to the Apple one.

That's fair. I do know that miniB phones were few and far between, since the microB was popularized shortly after the smartphone was starting to go ubiquitous. I know about HTC phones, since those were where my experience was with early smartphones (specifically the HTC Dream and HTC Hero, which both had miniB).
