The first phone to run on Android debuted from Google in 2008 and was universally recognized as a hilariously obvious copy of iOS and everything about the iPhone.

The early internal versions of Android bore absolutely no resemblance to what was finally released in 2008. There wasn't even a touchscreen at all, and they had a physical QWERTY Blackberry-esque keyboard. They magically changed after the iPhone was released. This is all quite well-documented.
