Mini's still on my TI-84+ and I can only speak anecdotally but I've never had a single cable die or have a socket go loose. I plugged and unplugged it probably ten times a day last year for six months so I could work on making my first calculator game.

I go through a micro-USB cable once a month. I buy them in bulk. I hate the standard with a passion. I don't like thin devices- if they could make thicker phones that have mini I'd buy them instead.

Micro sockets get full with dust too and are really hard to clean. My last two phones usb sockets died on me.

I got this feeling the mini is more robust. It got way better metal support for the plug.

Edit: Couldnt remember which is which.
