Transferring your info from an old phone to a new one has always been a pain – especially if the two handsets are made by different manufacturers and refuse to “talk” to each other. And if they are on different operating systems? Ugh, the thought causes many to cringe.
However, this shouldn’t necessarily be the case. In recent years, manufacturers have cared to provide tools, which help users quickly extract their data from their old handset and put it in the new one. As our tests with HTC’s Transfer, Samsung’s Smart Switch, and Sony’s Xperia Transfer proved – while some of these apps make the process a bit easier than others, we could say that they all manage to do their jobs in a painless manner, be it in an Android-to-Android or iOS-to-android switch.
