If you are accustomed to using Apple's cloud services, you can export your contacts as a vCard file via iCloud and then import them into your itel phone. With this method, you can selectively import only the contacts you want, rather than all of them.

Step 1. On your iPhone, go to "Settings" > "Apple ID" > "iCloud", and make sure "Contacts" are synced to iCloud. (iCloud contacts not syncing?)

Step 3. Go to "Contacts", click the "gear" icon in the lower left corner, and select "Select All".

Step 6. In the left sidebar, click on "Import" to add new contacts.
Step 7. Click "Select file", choose the vCard file you downloaded earlier, and then click "Import".
Step 8. Once all your contacts have been imported, give it some time to sync with your Android device.
Step 9. Open the Contacts app on your Android phone, and you'll see all your iPhone contacts there.
Another popular method is using the Google Contacts feature. By syncing your iPhone contacts to Google and then enabling sync on your itel phone, you can also transfer contacts from iPhone to itel.
