iPhone 13 Pro Max Storage issue ?

[richxps]

All , just transferred my data from 12 pro max to 13 pro max and on my 13 my storage is showing that I’m using 30gb of photos , as opposed to 0 on my 12 max since I use i cloud …and 13 gb of system data .. is this a bug or phone issue ? Also note I tried to restore 3 times even with iCloud back up ….
Thanks

Could it be that your phone is doing its initial photo optimization and the gbs you see on your phone will decrease over the next few days?

I've had that experience. Shock at first, and then things settle.
