Hello meimo114,


Thanks for posting in the Apple Support Communities. We're happy to look into this with you.


If you were using iCloud Photos on your old iPhone, and have enabled it on the new one, the photos will continue to sync. Please know, if you're using iCloud Photos, your pictures aren't included in your iCloud backup since they automatically sync to iCloud.


If you'd like more details about the differences, reviewing What does iCloud back up? - Apple Support, is the best resource.


Best regards.
