About switching BlackBerry smartphones

When you switch to a new BlackBerry smartphone your data and settings, such as supported email messages, organizer data, and compatible third-party applications, can be transferred to your new smartphone.

The backup and restore process can be done using a media card or the BlackBerry Device Software. Both options are available from the Device Switch option in the Setup application.

A Switch Smartphones user guide is available at docs.blackberry.com. Depending on your wireless service provider, this feature might not be available.
