So do the last part of the support article and that is delete the update and start again.
Remove and download the update again
If you still can't install the latest version of iOS or iPadOS, try downloading the update again:
If you don’t see the update in the list of apps or if the issue
happens again, you need to update your device with your computer using
Finder or iTunes.
If you want to do the update over the air, make sure you're plugged in to charge and you have a strong Wifi connection. If that's not possible, connect your phone to your computer and do the update using iTunes.
Force Restart your phone:
It’s a brand new phone and I’m trying to set it up. None of those things work.
Make sure you:
• Are using a WiFi connection (not a hotspot).
• Have your battery charged at least 50%.
• Are not using a VPN connection.
• Do not have power save mode turned on.
I can’t get to those menus because I haven’t set up the phone yet. It won’t let me set it up w/o downloading the update
