    Hi all

    My last three phones have been Sony Xperias but im making the jump over to Samsung this time. Should have an S8 next week.

    I've always moved over using the sony desktop companion but this time i cant.

    Whats the best way to move my apps and data over?

    I'm having an issue backing my xperia up to my google drive as well. The app backup fails at 50%:mad:

    I moved from a z3 to an s8 earlier this year. It is a very easy process, there is a Samsung moving app you install on both phones and will sync everything up, call logs, sms messages etc. With the lack of a physical home button on the s8, you really will have a minimal learning curve.
