are there 2 ways to reset the phone?

I researched the internet and found the below, however, I am VERY afraid as to what "Erase All Content and Settings" means exactly. Does anyone know? I want to keep my photos and videos!!!

Thank you in advance.

On your iPhone X, open the Settings app.
Tap General > Reset > Erase All Content and Settings.

"Erase All Content" means erase all content on the phone. If you do not have a backup of your phone or are not using iCloud photos then all of your photos and videos will be lost.
