Help USB to mini USB Android - file opening

[richieof1]

Hi new to all this, quick question. If I buy the correct cable can I watch movies on my USB stick on my Levono Android device by simply connecting it via the mini usb port.
What I mean is how will I open and find the files on the USB stick, on a conventional PC you would goto my computer.
Is there a method on android to open the files on a USB. Thanks

I just use a file explorer (e.g. X-plore). But if the flash drive is mounted as USB storage I'd hope your gallery or media app would be able to find it.

Do you know that your Lenovo supports USB OTG (On The Go), which is what is required here. Many devices do these days, but not every device, so just something to check.
