Hello, so i recently discovered i have no more icloud storage and i checked what exactly is taking up all my space and i realised that my old phone ‘hi’ is taking up space from its backup. I wanted to know if it’s okay for me to delete that back up because i know have a new phone so will it be necessary for me to keep that backup?

iPhone 12, iOS 15

If you've already used the backup to setup a new phone and everything seems okay with the new phone, you can delete the backup of the old one.
