    Hello there, gageandance.

     

    It seems you're trying to find out how long a restore from iCloud will take on your new iPhone 6s. The short answer to that question is that the amount of time it will take can vary due to a number of factors. The following Knowledge Base article provides some great recommendations for making sure the process completes as smoothly as possible:

     

    Restore your device from an iCloud or iTunes backup - Apple Support

     

    iCloud

    1. Turn on your device. You should see a Hello screen.
    2. Follow steps in the iOS Setup Assistant. Join a Wi-Fi network and follow steps until you see the Set Up Device screen.
    3. Tap Restore from an iCloud Backup. Then sign in to iCloud.
    4. Choose a backup. Look at the date and size of each and pick the most relevant. After you choose a backup, the transfer starts. 
    5. If you've purchased iTunes or App Store content using multiple Apple IDs, you'll be asked to sign in to each. If you can’t remember a password, you can tap Skip this Step and enter it later.
    6. Stay connected. If you disconnect from Wi-Fi before the process completes, the restore process pauses until you reconnect. Give the process time to finish. Restoring from a backup can take a while, depending on the size of the backup and the network speed.

    Get help with this process. Learn what to do if a backup requires a newer version of iOS.
