transfer data to new phone BEFORE I change my phone info with cellular carrier?

When I get my new phone, do I transfer my data from backup, and set up my new phone BEFORE I register the new phone with my cellular carrier? Using the same cellular carrier and account that I had for the old phone.

Or maybe it doesnt matter?
