mini USB was a tad smaller than your standard

micro USB, simply because the five pins that contain the ID pin on both plugs doesn't work on the
mini USB but does in
micro USB.

Micro-USB replaces a majority of Mini-USB plugs and receptacles currently in use. The specification of the Micro-USB supports the current USB On-The-Go (OTG) supplement and provides total mobile interconnectivity by enabling portable devices to communicate directly with each other without the need for a host computer.
