The key is to be sure to back up your old iPhone BEFORE attempting to transfer any data to the new device. The support article that you arrived here from provides you with all of the possible methods to transfer the data.


You mention transfer "messages." Are you referring to iMessages, SMS text messages, or email messages ... or all three?
