I just bought a new iPhone for my husband. Unfortunately I set it up using my Apple ID. I assume his phone should have a different Apple ID? So, if I want to erase all content from his new phone (he previously had an Android), will it only erase the content on his phone or will it erase my info on my phone as well?
iPhone 11, iOS 14
It shouldn't affect either phone.
He should have a different Apple ID than your Apple ID.
Apple ID - Could Not Create or Could Not Set Up iCloud message.
I suggest you use the steps in the article below to reset the new phone.

It won't delete it if you erase it in the sense of resetting it. What you should not do is remove items in categories. For example, if you delete a photo by going to the Photos app and deleting it, the photos will also be deleted on your phone. Instead follow the steps in the Selling document provided in the Eric Root post. This will delete items in a way that won't affect your devices.
