Given that the FBI even has trouble breaking into these phones and you can now trace a phone’s location, how is it that these phones are able to be resold?

Also, as much as it sucks, in that situation I would think it be wise to just give the thugs the phone rather than take a physical beating. When I took a self defense course, we were taught to toss the desired object ( wallet, phone etc.) away from your person, if they went for it then let them have it and run. If they still came after you then it was never about the theft in the first place and you better be ready to defend yourself.

God advice there. It's also not a bad idea to carry a money clip with a twenty on the outside, and ones inside. In an iffy situation, toss that money clip, then get moving.
