If you still have the old iPhone so you can back it up now or otherwise use it, you can erase the new one and start over. See the following from Set up your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support

If you already set up your new device but want to start over, learn how to erase your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch.
