I want to hold off on iOS 16 until the new phone gets here (so I can experience two new shiny things instead of one). Remind me... there's no issue with that right? I can restore from an iOS 15 backup when I am setting up the new phone?

i know this thread is moving lightening fast but can anyone advise on this..?

not at all in a bad financial position, no bad credit history, i've had network contracts for years.. i just don't use credit very much. i just would like to know how stringent they are with approvals!
I have not had any issue using this finance option, including doing a second one on launch day when pre pre went pair shape. Hope this helps. 1000/1000 credit score on my file also though.

Yes backups are forwards compatible.
