Yes for a one-off backup, I'd just use a computer. You just need a normal, regular USB-C cable (essentially like the charging cable you use, just instead of plugging it into the power brick, you plug it into a USB port in your computer).

If you only have a PC, not a Mac, I believe you use iTunes software to create a backup. Should be fairly straightforward.
