Disabled Iphone 6s - Have I lost all my unbacked up data ?

I

iMore Question

I recently disabled my iphone by entering the password in wrong too many times. I have now remembered by password but the phone is disabled and says plug into Itunes!

However I have not backed up my phone recently and there are things on there that I really need to get back. I know I can erase and restore the enable iphone however I need to back up more recent data. Have I lost all this data or can I still back up my phone?

Thanks

Unless you have a recent backup you will lose the data. The phone needs to be restored to use it and that means a factory reset.
