    It depends on what your old phone is. Did it have ability to send contacts to a computer or to sync them with something like Google? If all else fails you should be able to take both phones to your cellular provider and have them transfer the contacts to the iPhone sim. The following has instructions on how to import them into the phone once they have been transferred to the sim. iPhone: Understanding SIM cards
