iPhone SE (2016) Does iphone data migration also transfer the data of deleted photos/videos?

[snvplayer]

So this question might be somewhat confusing, but I will try to be as clear as I can.

If I perform data migration from iphone SE to iphone 12 mini, does iphone SE also receive data of deleted photos, videos, etc?

If I performed data recovery on iphone iphone 12 mini, would photos that were deleted more than 30 days ago in iphone SE be possibly recovered?

I am asking because I need to recover a few photos that were deleted long time ago in iphone SE. And, I am wondering if the data of deleted photos are also transfered during data migration.

If it's in recently deleted, it's not deleted yet and will transfer. If you don't want them to show up, permanently delete them from recently deleted

The photos are not in recently deleted..They were deleted more than 5 months ago in Iphone SE. I am wondering if the data of deleted photos/videos are transferred during data migration, and if there is any possibility of recovering the photos from Iphone 12 mini to which iphone SE data was migrated...

Yes, there is a possibility they can be recovered using professional tools. This is not something you can do through settings, though, once they are gone from "recently deleted".

Just like with a PC, the photos aren't actually "removed" from memory. The phone just "forgets" where they are, and allocates that storage for other things, which can eventually overwrite.

Doesn't apply here since the methods you're talking about involve reading the residual bits from the device. When storage is written to, it leaves a "trace" of its set states, which can be measured. OP is transferring to a new phone.

Yes, I'm aware of this. I was referring to his old phone. I was less than clear and see now that he is only inquiring about the new phone.

So, you are saying that the iphone data migration transfers the data in the memory(where deleted photos are allocated) as well, right?

Ok, this kinda answers my question. The residual bits aren't transfered during the data migration.....
Do you know if the residual bits remain in a backup file?

Bro those bits are a physical phenomenon of the data writing to the transistor being struck by X volts of current. They aren't backed up. Relax, no one wants to see your porn
