Now it is not possible to manually enter all the phone numbers one by one in the phone book. There are some easy means that can be comes in handy while in use. Here, some simple methods for transferring the contacts from one phone to another are discussed for some of the popular brands only.
Transfer of contacts using SIM: This process is particularly suitable for the smaller size of the phone book. For a huge number, of contacts, this process will not work as the SIM will be flooded with the contacts.

There are many providers for such software in the market. Mobile providers like Nokia, Samsung, Black Berry, iPhone etc have their own sets of interfacing software to communicate with the computers. For instance, Nokia uses OVI Suite, interfacing software which helps the contact from a Nokia phone to copy in Microsoft outlook.

Mobical is a free service which is helpful to send phone books from one mobile phone to another by storing the contacts in the clouds. The receiving mobile phone will also download the contacts from the cloud on successful settings of Mobical in it.
