You are right. It is a micro USB and not a mini USB which is a slightly different connector.

YOU probably need to make sure that the cable has a long micro USB connector part if the side of the tablet is curved like my V813. Otherwise more normal (shorter) connectors may not make proper contact.

some examples here

too short

good long connector

You still need to be careful (or maybe lucky) that you get one with a long connector.

this one looks better but it is hard to tell from the photos

better to search for "usb micro cable long connector"

like this one looks good

I ordered another noodle cable which thankfully works but with great difficulty. It has to be pushed hard all the way in and tilted to one side.

I have now ordered the following

Thanks a lot pal. You have been very helpful. I guess what we need is really a micro usb cable with long connector.
