Q: Restore procedure from iTunes
How long would you expect it to take to perform the restore procedure on an iPhone 6S 64gb model with approx 30 gb data to be restored using a standard PC and iTunes? I performed the backup procedure before updating to ios 10.0.1 but when attempting to restore afterwards it reported the estimated time to restore was 35 hours.
iPhone 6s, iOS 10

Depending on the data on the phone, the first estimate shown by the computer might be correct. Especially if there are many photos or videos on the phone, which will all have to be unpacked copied back to the phone.
But, as the process goes on for a bit, the estimated time will be reduced when the bigger files have already been moved back to the phone.
