Get in advance an usb3 to usb3 cable, to connect both phones together. 
Make sure both phones are charged full. There is automated software on 
the new phone to copy all that is necessary.

Whatsapp copies fine, just make a full backup to google before 
transferring. I'm unsure if the usb cable copies everything (I did not 
have the cable last time I made a transfer).
