The first "Google phone" was the HTC Dream (T-Mobile G1) with MiniUSB. Next was the Nexus One with MicroUSB. Everything after used MicroUSB until the Nexus 5X with USB-C.
It feels like you’re arguing semantics. Are you only counting Google-branded devices? What about other Android flagships made by Samsung? HTC?
I was addressing this point in particular. There were no "Nexus" devices with MiniUSB, so it was clear quite early that Google considered MicroUSB to "the right port" for Android.
That’s not true. I have a Nexus tablet with mini-USB. So either you only mean phones or you’re wrong.
Which tablet? I checked every device on https://www.gsmarena.com/results.php3?sQuickSearch=yes&sName=nexus, and none have Mini USB. There were two Nexus 7 tablets with Micro USB.
