How do you clone an internal (APFS) SSD to a new SSD?

I want to upgrade my old macbook pro 2011 running on High Sierra. Was watching a lot of youtube videos and some people do it the way you did it and other use cloning program like super duper e.t.c. Could you explain whats a difference? I just ordered a new 1T ssd and Sabrent data adapter to do your way. Just don't understand why they use third party program if it's simple to do your way?

I don't get the same options. No MAC OS Extended (Journaled). Only options I have is APFS. I don't see a Scheme option either.

Very simple process, just that it stuck with the bar almost at the end for more than 1 hour, and okha only had 180GB of data.

So the HD was very slow. iMac 2019
