If you are using Galaxy S7, S7 or Note 8, you can make use of this awesome app called Samsung smart switch mobile. You will find this already installed on Samsung Galaxy 8. This app allows you to sync most of the files like contacts, messages, notes and calendar schedules. In fact, you can even get the same home screen layout for the new phone using the same service.  This app can be used with other mobile phones as well like HTC, Lenovo, and Motorola. However, the transfer is perfectly performed while using Samsung devices. Most of the other mobile manufacturing companies also provide such apps for transferring data from their devices wirelessly. For instance, LG offers an app called LG Mobile Switch (Sender) for this purpose. You can thus choose the appropriate app based on the mobile company you are using.
