Contacts is very important for everyone of us. We cant connect to our friends without a contact number. If you have a new phone, saving contacts on the phone one by one is so hassle. But now, theres an easy way how to transfer or import your contacts from your old phone to your new phone.
Use your PC to transfer contacts to your new phone. This process is applicable in several phone brands, including iPhone, Samsung, HTC and Nokia.

Please note that if you are using the Microsoft Windows 7 operating system on your PC, make sure that the AutoPlay setting is enabled.
To check your settings:
Click Start > Control Panel, then type "autoplay" on the search box. Click the AutoPlay, and mark the check box Use AutoPlay for all media and devices.

Nokia Lumia 520 Specs and Features

One of Nokias mid-range smartphones that was introduced this year in Barcelona was the Nokia Lumia 520. As Nokias CEO Stephen Elop would say, these two latest flagships, Lumia 520 and 720, are packed with features found in their high-end phones but at a budget-friendly price. Nokia Lumia 520 is said to be Nokias most affordable Windows Phone 8 device yet. But hey, here are some reasons why Lumia 520 is more than what its price suggest.
This bright-colored smartphone is powered by 1GHz dual-core Snapdragon processor and has a decent 512MB RAM with 8GB of internal memory. It also has a microSD slot expandable up to 64GB and a 1430mAh battery that can live up to 360 hours of standby time, 9 1/2 hours of talk time and 61 hours of music playback time. Well, for first time smartphone users, this one is pretty nice with its 4-inch display with a resolution of 800x480 pixels. It may not stand a chance when compared with full HD display phones but with its price its most likely to be one of the best Lcds available. Just like the Lumia 920, Nokia Lumia 520s Lcd works perfectly when you touch it evn if youre wearing gloves. It also carries 920 camera lens apps like the Cinemagraph,Smart Shoot and Panorama lens. The downside of this device is that it only sports a rear camera at 5 megapixels. It significantly lacks a front-facing camera which is common on any smartphones.
The Nokia Lumia 520 comes preloaded with Nokias Here suite software like the Drive, Transit, Maps and Music app. It will be available in U.S through T-Mobile unlike its sibling Lumia 720 which may not be sold in US. Write-ups suggest that Lumia 520 will be available in second quarter this year. Lumia 520 comes in five colors- white,red, yellow, cyan and black. Nokia will also sell optional snap-on covers for this device.

Nokia Lumia 720 Specs and Features
.png)
Nokia Lumia 720 sports a 4.3-inch curved glass Clear Black display with a 800x480 resolution. It is powered with a SnapDragon S4 chipset with a 1 GHz dual-core processor. However it only has a 512MB of RAM which makes switching apps a bit sluggish compared to other hig-end smartphones. The Lumia 720 is slimmer than 920 which is at 9.0mm and weighs at 128g. And this is Nokias first unibody phone with microSD slot. Its battery can last up to 13hours of talk time, 520 hours of standby time and 79 hours of music playback time.
The biggest feature on Nokia Lumia 720 is perhaps its camera. It may only have a 6.7 megapixel rating but its packed with impressive lens. It practically has beaten its predecessor and perhaps other smartphones as it takes pride wit its F1.9 aperture which means more light through the lens and better photos. Nokia also added a backside-illuminated (BSI) sensor design which lets the sensor pick up more light. Nokia this time made a huge leap to improve its front-facing camera. Featuring a F 2.4 aperture, a wide-viewing angle and and HD resolution of 1280x960, surely this front-facing camera is great improvement. You can now take a group of four self-portraits that fits in comfortably on the Lcd using the front-facing camera.
Additionally, Lumia 720 has NFC support and is capable of wireless charging, like the 920,with a special snap-on cover. This latest flagship of Nokia adds to its stable of Windows 8 phone. Nokia announced for a second quarter release of 720 for Europe. It will be available in as early as April or as late as June.
