Quick Start or ICloud Backup?

I get my new iPhone 14 Pro in a few days and I am unsure whether I should use Quick Start or ICloud Backup for the data transfer from my iPhone 11. Is there any difference in either speed (I have gigabit broadband) or what data/settings are transferred?

They are different things.


Read Set up your iPhone, iPad or iPod touch and you will see the guide will instruct you to use Quick Start to set up your account data, then later on employ your iCloud backup to restore your old iPhone to your new iPhone.
