Synced iPhone and now out of storage space?

Why does my iPhone use storage when backing up to iTunes? Prior to the backup I had 2GB, during the backup I got a notification on the phone saying I'm out of space. I checked and now it's only got 150MB.


What caused this? I'm restoring/downloading documents from iCloud but thats getting stored locally on my Mac.

iPhone 8 Plus, iOS 14

I had extra options checked in iPhone sync that backed up some pictures, audiobooks and movies.
