Cell phones and iphones: Transferring Contacts from Iphone 4S to Samsung GT - E1200
Is there a quick way to transfer my contacts from Iphone 4S to a Samsung GT-E1200 (a basic, older phone).
I think you have to save the contacts from the iPhone to the SIM and transfer the SIM which means you need the outer plastic to make the SIM bigger too
you should be able to transfer your contacts from the iPhone by connecting it to your computer and fire up itunes.

navigate to the device screen by clicking “iPhone” in the upper right-hand corner. Open the Info tab, then check the box next to “Sync Contacts with.” Choose “Google Contacts” from the dropdown menu, then enter your Google account information when prompted.@androidauthority.com: http://www.androidauthority.com/how-to-transfer-contacts-iphone-android-186636/

I don't think it is possible to transfer contacts from iPhone 4s to the installed sim card, I will try the suggestion re using ITunes and see what happens.

I backed up my iPhone to ICloud and I find now that full Contacts are now in Icloud.
How do I get them from Icloud onto the Samsung cell-phone?

“Sync Contacts with.” Choose “Google Contacts” from the dropdown menu, then enter your Google account information
- you have to sync the iphone to a Google account that you can access with your Android phone!

I don't see the dropdown menu from which I can choose the 'Google Contacts' option.
I attach screenshot which may be helpful. if you want a more complete screenshot let me know.

Irrespective if iPhone cannot save contacts to SIM or whether or not you can sync to Google contacts, the Samsung GT-E1200 run SGP OS
You will just be able to backup, not restore it
