I keep all my movies, mp3s, photos on the external SD card, so whenever I switch phones (and it's a lot) I just plug in my microSD card.
For apps, I never re-auto download all my previous apps, I just log back in to google play and select the apps I want.
All in all, it usually only takes me about 30-mins to setup a new phone the way I want it.

Same for me, and I agree it doesn't take too much time. Configuring the launcher takes a little effort and some app data seems to get lost in the transition, but all the important stuff seems to be covered. I don't change phones (or ROMs) much though, so I only have to do this every few years.
If I can sidetrack a bit, I had a lot of apps moved to the SD card on my old phone. Since I don't need to do that on the Note 3, my SD card probably has a bunch of files I can get rid of now. Can anyone tell me or point me to some info on how to clean up App2SD stuff on my memory card? Thanks!
