“I have recently got a new Vivo V19, but I can’t seem to move my data from my old Mi phone. Can someone tell me how to transfer data from Mi to Vivo phones?”

If you have also got a new Vivo device and were using an Mi phone before, then you can have a similar doubt. Whenever we get a new phone, the first thing we do is transfer our important data like contacts, photos, messages, and more. Don’t worry – learning how to transfer contacts from Mi to Vivo is pretty easy. In this post, I will teach you how to transfer data from Mi to Vivo devices in not one, but three different ways.

Part 1: How to Transfer Data from Mi to Vivo Devices with MobileTrans – Phone Transfer

To begin with, I will list the easiest way to transfer data directly between different smartphones. MobileTrans – Phone Transfer is a part of the toolkit that is used to do a direct device-to-device transfer. The application is extremely easy to use and supports all the major Mi and Vivo models.

• • With MobileTrans, you can directly move your data from Mi to Vivo or vice-versa. The application can also move data between Android and iOS devices with no compatibility issues.
• • As of now, MobileTrans supports 8000+ different models, including all the major Mi and Vivo smartphones.
• • You can transfer up to 17 different types of data, such as your photos, videos, contacts, documents, music, notes, and more.
• • The MobileTrans interface will let you select the type of data that you wish to transfer from any source to the target device.
• • Using MobileTrans – Phone Transfer is extremely simple and it won’t need any jailbreak/root access. Also, your data would be 100% secure and will not be saved anywhere in between.

Now when you know the major features of MobileTrans – Phone Transfer, you can follow these steps to learn how to transfer data from Mi to Vivo using it.

Step 1: Launch the MobileTrans – Phone Transfer tool

At first, you can just install MobileTrans – Phone Transfer on your computer by visiting its website. Now, just launch the MobileTrans application, and from its welcome page, select the “Phone Transfer” module.

Step 2: Mark the Source and Target Devices

Now, using the compatible USB cables, you can just connect your Mi and Vivo phones to your computer. In no time, MobileTrans will automatically detect them and would mark them as either source or destination. If their placement is wrong, then use the Flip button to ensure Mi is the source and Vivo is the target device.

Step 3: Transfer data from Mi to Vivo

Afterward, you can view the list of the supported data types and select what you wish to move – like your photos, videos, contacts, and more. There is also an option to clear data on your target (Vivo) device beforehand that you can enable.

That’s it! Now you can click on the “Start” button and wait as MobileTrans would transfer the selected data from your Mi to Vivo device. Try not to halt the process or disconnect your devices in between. When the data transfer process is over, you will be notified so that you can safely remove your devices.

Part 2: How to Transfer Data from Mi to Vivo via Bluetooth?

If you want to learn how to transfer data from Mi to Vivo wirelessly, then you can take the assistance of Bluetooth. Since it is an inbuilt feature in smartphones, you don’t have to install any app.

Though, the Bluetooth feature can only transfer a few media files and contacts. Also, it will consume a lot of time and effort to transfer your data this way. That’s why it is only recommended to use Bluetooth to transfer a few files instead. To learn how to transfer data from Mi to Vivo via Bluetooth, the following steps can be taken.

Step 1: Pair your Mi and Vivo phones

Before you start transferring your data, place your Mi and Vivo phones nearby, and enable the Bluetooth feature. You can tap on the Control Center > Bluetooth option or go to their Settings > Bluetooth to turn it on.

Now, on your Mi device, you can start scanning to look for nearby phones. From here, tap on your Vivo phone and enter the one-time authentication code to pair your devices.

Step 2: Select and transfer your data

Great! Once both the devices are paired, go to your Mi phone, and browse the file you want to transfer. Go to its More Options > Share feature and select Bluetooth from here.

In the end, you can select your Vivo device and transfer your data. On your Vivo phone, you will get a notification so that you can accept the incoming data from your Mi device.

Limitations

• • Takes a lot of time to transfer data this way
• • Can only move selected files
• • It is not a beginner-friendly solution

Part 3: How to Transfer Contacts from Mi to Vivo with your SIM Card?

You might already know that SIM cards these days have storage of 256 kb that can store hundreds of contacts. Therefore, if you wish to learn how to transfer contacts from Mi to Vivo, then you can use your SIM card.

Step 1: Export Contacts from your Mi phone to the SIM card

Firstly, you can just unlock your source (Mi) phone and go to its Contacts app. Now, go to its more options (from the three-dot icon on the top) and browse to the Manage Contacts > Import/Export field. From here, you can choose to export your contacts to the SIM card.

Step 2: Import contacts from the SIM card to your Vivo phone

Once your contacts are stored in the SIM, you can use an ejector tool to take the card out. Afterward, you can carefully insert the SIM card on your Vivo device.

Similarly, you can go to its Contacts > More Options > Manage Contacts. Go to the Import/Export options, select the Import field, and choose to extract your contacts from the connected SIM card. This will let you learn how to transfer contacts from Mi to Vivo phones freely.

Limitations

• • Take a lot of time and efforts
• • Can only transfer contacts (no other data type transfer supported)

There you go! Now when you know how to transfer data from Mi to Vivo in three ways, you can easily switch to your new phone without losing anything. Since your SIM card can only transfer contacts and the Bluetooth transfer is pretty time-consuming, MobileTrans – Phone Transfer would be the best solution. Not just Mi to Vivo, this smart application can help you move your data between any two devices without any compatibility issues.
