2. How to Transfer Contacts from Samsung to Samsung with Gmail

If you are an Android fan, you probably have got a Google account/Gmail account. If you don’t, my suggestion is that you create a new one if you don’t have a Gmail account anyway. In my point of view, it is also a nice try to transfer contacts via Gmail. Scroll down to know how:

Step 1: Add a Google account on your Samsung phones. You need to go to “Settings > Accounts > Add Account > Google”, in the final section, you have to sign in to your own Gmail account.

Step 2: Transfer contacts to your Gmail account. Please go to “Settings > Accounts > Google > Sync Contacts”.

Step 3: Sync the contacts to the new Samsung phone. After adding your Google account on the target Samsung phone, please go to “Settings > Accounts > Google > Contacts > Sync Now”. Now you have your contacts on your new Samsung phone.

3. How to Transfer Contacts from Samsung to Samsung via vCards

The vCard file/vcf is the standard file format for contacts. To transfer all of your contacts from Samsung to Samsung, you can utilize a vCard file.

To utilize this method, export all of your contacts to a vCard file, then send the vCard file to your new Galaxy, and then import the vCard file into your new Samsung phone.

• Go to the Contacts App on the source device, and click the three vertical dots from the top-right corner. Tap Settings > Contacts. Please make sure that there is a SIM card on your Samsung phone.
• There you can have an option of Import/Export contacts. Tap Export to Device Storage. Confirm the export. All contacts would be generated as vCards to SIM card.

• Remove the SIM card from the source Samsung phone and then install it on the target Samsung phone.
• Run on the target device, go to Contacts App, and follow the step 1 to get to the option of Import/Export contacts. Select Import vCard file. Now, click the vcf files you want to import to Samsung phone, click OK.
  

4. How to Transfer Contacts from Samsung to Samsung with Bluetooth

You can also choose to transfer contacts from Samsung to Samsung via Bluetooth. Note that this method requires exporting the contacts to a vCard and then transferring the vCard to the target phone via Bluetooth. Before transferring contacts from a Samsung phone to a Samsung phone via Bluetooth, please make sure that Bluetooth is turned on on both devices and then pair the devices.

You can try transferring a small file between the two devices to confirm connectivity. This method could be a bit time-consuming, please be patient.

1. Make sure you have turned on Bluetooth on both Samsung phones. Pair your Samsung phones.
2. Go to Contacts App of the source device, tab and hold any of the contacts you want to transfer to the new Samsung phone. When the tapped contact is checked, tap Select All or manually check the box in front of each contact’s name individually.
3. Once desired contacts are selected, tap the Share icon from the top of the Window. From the displayed options, tap the Bluetooth icon.
4. From the paired devices, choose the one you want to send selected contacts to.
5. On the target Samsung phone, accept the incoming files. Please wait patiently until the process is finished.

Step 2:  Open the Smart Switch app.

Step 3: Select the contacts you want to transfer. A Tap “Import” at the bottom of the screen to start transferring your contacts.
