HTC were an early adopter
...with the HTC 10 two years ago.
Still a fairly solid phone, although the battery life is a bit shitty.
The problem with adopting a new standard before others is, of course, that you couldn't get USB A-C cables anywhere except online at the time. Two years later, and you can quite easily find them in the supermarkets / newsagents, etc.
