You don't need to free up space for the update if you do it via a computer and Itunes. Only need to free up the space if you want to update via WiFi.

Reset your device (I.e. Reset and erase all settings). Then setup your phone again using your backup. You'll get back about 50% of your space doing this. There's plenty of data being stored that you can't access or delete without wiping and restoring again.
