Transfer of information to new iPhone 📲 from old 📱 7
Is it wise to transfer old or irrelevant info etc from old iPhone 7 before syncing to new? Then I should clear all contents and settings? Any help would be appreciated.

Hey there! I am assuming you are referring to transferring data to a new iPhone. In my opinion I transfer all the data from my old phone to my new phone. I am unsure of what you mean by old or irrelevant in this matter, but usually I transfer everything over and then do a little "Housekeeping" with the new device.
Of course, you will want to erase the data from your old phone. You can do that through here
if you plan on selling the phone or giving it to someone, you will most likely need to remove something called an Activation lock. This is a nifty feature that prevents anyone from formatting your phone and trying to use it. I would refer to this article to remove that lock so the next user may use it :)
