You’re a Communist newspaper?

I know with Motorola they had a migrate app that helped facilitate a smooth transfer from any device to their own. I would imagine there are similar apps for just about any device out there

Most phones offer the migrate option.

Not sure about Crapple to Android though.

The biggest problem with migrating from Apple to Android is the fact that they're entirely different ecosystems.
Any apps you buy can't be transferred etc.
Photos and contacts can be transferred though I imagine

Anyone, please?

I'm thinking of making the switch from Apple to Android, mainly because I'll have a much wider choice of phone to buy. For the latest Apple, it's either the new one, the new one plus, or the new one lite. The possibility of using a stylus is something that appeals to me, and Samsung offer this.

You can backup your contacts from iPhone to Gmail, and you can backup your iPhone content including photos to iCloud. There are a number of online guides describing how you can then transfer your information back to an Android phone from either Gmail or iCloud.

Many applications are available on both platforms, and you need an account to log in to them. So you should be able to use the most popular apps on iPhone or Android, using the same account login. I transitioned from Apple Music to Spotify a while ago, and things like this reduce your reliability on one platform or the other.

I've decided to get the Samsung Note 10 when it is released next month, and I'm now busy making sure all my contacts are synchronised with Gmail, photos and other stuff backed up, and recording the log in details for my favourite apps (using LastPass, which is multi-platform).

One of the options.

1. Head up to iCloud.com via your computer.
2. Select the contacts that you want to export. either one by one. ...
3. Click the gear again and select Export vCard. ...
4. Plug your Android phone to the computer, copy the VCF file to the local storage and import the contacts from the Contacts or People app.

I'd go for a OnePlus but they aren't quite as budget friendly as they used to be.
I really like the look of the Mi 9T as it has no notch so it's all screen

Yeah it's really close to what the oneplus 7 pro looks like with the pop up camera, def worth the money mate.

Just waiting for it to come to the UK as it's still sold mainly in the EU and buying a phone off eBay does make me a little nervous as I'm not sure what warranty I'll get

I've got a Motorola G5 and it's fucking brill. It cost me £120. It also has fingerprint recognition.

Buy a new phone (unlocked), go SIM only and save yourself a fortune.

Its on Amazon, they sell with a legal warranty of 6 months which is quite comprehensive and i think if you have an issue after that which is not due to an obvious accident, you can generally get that sorted through their sellers as well. Amazon have been really good on stuff i have bought from them if they've gone faulty, any issues with sellers you just go to the webchat and they will sort it out quickly.
