iOS taking to long to update

Hello! So I bought today an iPhone 8plus and I am trying to set it up. When I get to the point of updating my iOS (because I didn’t had space in the old one) it’s seems that is taking too long to update. I started the setting without my sim and I though that if I inserted the sim will be quicker but still is saying it will take a day. I don’t know what to do

iPhone 8 Plus, iOS 12

You need the SIM to complete activation of the phone. If you are experiencing a problem with updating Over the Air, see this support document, Get help with over-the-air iOS updates - Apple Support


If that does not help, then use the instructions in here to update via iTunes, Update your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support
