How to Transfer Phone Contacts from Nokia To Android

Earlier we have to spend $200+ to buy an Android operating system mobile but time has changed a lot. Today I can see Android mobile range starts from $50. Earlier Shop owners boozed about Nokia for their customers for their own profit. As Profits is more in Android mobiles when compared to Nokia, Shop owners started boozing about Android mobiles to uneducated people, which make them to choose Android mobiles without knowing about Android.
