Using quick setup to transfer data from old to new iPhone

Will this method set up the new iPhone just like the old one? For example, will I have the same apps and custom app folders after completing the process? Will this process also transfer all music and pictures from the old phone to the new one? Will this process also transfer all of the settings, including email accounts?

However, you asked about email accounts, while it transfer content, you may need to enter in the passwords for your accounts and/or services after Quick Start completes. Learn more about this here: Finish setting up your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
