I always setup as a new device even when I upgrade iOS. It will be no different this time as well on Sep 17th!
Usually update as new but think will do from back up this time. Will all the pics in icloud come back if set up as new or only with restore.

So why do people prefer setting up their phones as new instead of restoring them from iCloud or iTunes?

the idea is that when you start fresh you are not bringing any potential issues, bugs into the new OS and/or phone, I understand why but I've always restored from previous backups and it's always worked for me.

Agreed. The only time I've experienced some instability was restoring a backup from ios 6 to the ios 7 device. Nothing major and a did a hard reboot to fix But sometimes I just like to start with a clean slate ;
For new phones, I set up as new and manually add in things. A pain in the whatsit? Yes, but I just feel better when I start fresh on a new device. For my wife's phones, I always restore from backup.
