With the new phones today, they make you update the latest ios before you can restore to your backup. Its odd. I had to do that when I bought my new phone. Even though my older iphone was an iphone 8 and didnt get ios 17 when I bought my new phone (iphone se 3rd generation) I thought it would already have ios 17 on it but it only had ios 17 not the new version that came out the day before I bought my phone so verizon had to update the phone first to ios 17.0.1 before I could restore it from backup. It was weird. Good news is now apple said starting this month or January all stores will be able to manually update new phones with the latest ios without taking them out of the box.
