How to Transfer Contacts from Old iPhone to New iPhone 7/7 Plus

In reference to moving contacts from an iPhone to another iPhone, most people are inclined to count on iTunes or iCloud to move the data. However, actually there are some limitations to use these two tools to transfer data to another iPhone.

Let’s analyze the limitations on using iTunes and iCloud to transfer data like contacts, apps, videos and photos from iPhone to iPhone.

The features of using iTunes to backup:

1. Perfect for the users who always use PC, NB and Mac
2. No limitation for the storage space
3. Many large files like photos and apps can be backup in your iPhone
4. Fast to backup

The features of using iCloud to backup:

1. Perfect for the users who can reach Wi-Fi and 3G/4G network all the time
2. Only 5G storage space for free to backup
3. Few large files can be backup in your phone
4. Convenient to use without relying on PC

Note: The two tools only can backup the files downloaded from iPhone, that is to say, the files downloaded from PC and put in the iPhone cannot be backup.
