Android to Android

I am getting a new phone, what is the best way to transfer everything from my old phone to my new phone?
Here are my phones:
Old: Samsung Galaxy S3 running Android J 4.3 rooted
New: Hauwei Honor 8 running Android N 7.0 not rooted, and will not root it
What I need is transferring the contacts, SMS messages, Whatsapp data, games/apps and their data.

Welcome to the forums, and to the Honor 8! I have one too and love it - what colour did you get?

You can Bluetooth your contacts over to your Honor 8; and your apps and games, if they are stored within your Google Play Store account/app, will automatically be transferred to your Google Play Store app on your new Honor 8.

With regards to your SMS messages, I am unsure if they will be able to be transferred over via Bluetooth. Your contacts, if they had been saved to your SIM card, will be transferred to your new phone once you pop it into the Honor 8. I'm assuming your WhatsApp information will be stored within the app itself and once it is installed on your phone, your information will probably be there.

Enjoy your Honor 8! Feel free to drop by the Honor 8 sub-forums here to chat with us! We are a pretty active group!
