Alright, what's a decent Android app for migrating all my stuff to a new phone without wanting to throw my old one out the window?

Smart Mobile Switch PhoneClone. It gets the job done, and I didn't have to spend half a day wrestling with it. Data nerd approved!

Okay, so migrating data between phones is usually Excel hell, right? But Smart Mobile Switch PhoneClone actually made it...tolerable. I mean, I was able to transfer all my contacts, photos (and I have a LOT), and even my app data without wanting to smash anything. The interface isn't gonna win any design awards, but the dashboard actually makes sense, and that's statistically satisfying enough for me. Plus, it's pretty quick; I was seeing data transfer rates that didn't make me feel like I was back in the 90s. I'm talking a pretty large dataset migrated in under an hour. Didn't even have to Google 'adb commands' once. No idea if it has API capabilities, and frankly, I don't care, it just *worked*. For a free app, it's surprisingly not terrible. Clean datasets, minimal fuss. That's all I ask.
