I'm developing android client which is capable of upload system db contacts information (name, phone_number, email).

Could someone suggest the best technology in point of best performance (in client) with about 1000 contacts.

SOAP or REST, XML or JSON.

I would go for a REST service, as it is more lightweight as SOAP. Also, you don't need a stateful service for this. Next to that I would use JSON, for two reason. Almost always smaller than xml, and great Android support for parsers.
