For a number of reasons, I decided that I didn't want to wait for 5G, so I upgraded by iPhone 8 plus to a iPhone 11 Max Pro. I got it yesterday. Copying everything over was a breeze, I just left the old phone and the new phone talking for a while and everything was copied over including content. Apple has really improved the process since the last time I did it. On my iPads, I tend to just set it up as a new device rather than copy.
The exception to that was the Kindle App, which required me to treat it like a new device, i.e. sign in again and re-download everything, going through the whole annoyance of books with device limits. There were only about 20 of the some 2500 or so books, but it was just an extra annoyance since there is no batch download function with the kindle app.
Since I have about twice the storage as my old iPhone, I decided to install Calibre Companion and Marvin. At least with Calibre I can download in batches. It takes some time, but much easier than the Kindle app.
I don't do a lot of reading on my phone, but it is handy to have it there for those times I'm stuck in line or something. Since I mostly read on an iPad with Marvin, it's easy enough to sync and pick up where I left off.
The nice thing is that books copied over and copied all my audiobooks without me doing anything special.
