iCloud photos/backup - changing phone
Hi, I’m upgrading my phone from a 6s to a XS, but the storage is downsizing from 128GB to 64GB.
Let’s call the old iPhone ‘phone A’ and the new (64GB) iPhone ‘phone B’.
On Phone A I have 77GB of photos. This won’t fit at all on Phone B. I bought iCloud for the first time, and have enabled backups and photo library to help me move across.
1) If I wipe phone A, or delete it’s data, will the iCloud library sync and thus delete my photos?
2) Will iCloud know not to fill my new phone with old pics?
I want to save my pictures and films in the cloud only - my new phone has very little space, and my old phone is going to be factory reset once I’ve transitioned. How do you transition and downsize safely?
