Iphone 12 arrived and the OS is older than my current Iphone - cannot setup?

Just unpacked my Iphone12 and tried to pickup my iCloud Back up as a method of setup.

My old Iphone is 14.6 and the new one is 14.5.1 and will not restore.

The setup process dead ends me.

What is the solution?

iPhone 12, iOS 14

Set it up as a new device, update it to 14.6, restore it, and then load the backup.
