Samsung Smart Switch was pretty painless coming over from the G3. I'd go with that.

Ok thanks but will this allways keep my data stored after the transfer like Incase I ever lost my phone ?

The only way to keep your data constantly in sync is to use Google's sync (in Accounts), but that doesn't sync everything. Read Backing up an Android Phone, but that makes a static backup - what's there now. If you add apps, pictures, etc., you'll have to back them up too.

Hi,

Woud you know how easy is it to use Samsung Smart Switch to transfer apps & data from S3 to S6 Edge? ... Also, would the new S6 Edge have to be activated to install new apps?

Samsung Kies software, will back everything up to your pc including call history and text messages. if you were to ever lose your device and get a replacement it will restore with everything.

Kies no longer works, or at least it doesn't work with S6, you must use Samsung Smart Switch for PC or Mac.

Good to know! I have moved from the HTC M9 to the S6 and haven't even tried Kies but when I swapped between the Note 4 and Note Edge I used Kies to move everything. thanks for the info!
