Also might wanna try to just bring a cheap phone you wouldn't mind to lose just in case you do manage to lose it. Back up your data so if it does go missing you'll have the memories.
Not a bad strategy at all.
Still, hate to negotiate with terrorists. And bring home potato photos. Instead of $developing-nation-per-capita-GDP phone quality photos.
Which of course means the thieves will still be tempted! If anti-pickpocketing strategy becomes too successful, they’ll move to violent means, then a cheap phone will be a must.
Well phones are generally pretty good for taking pictures and videos. A pixel 4 or something is a pretty decent phone for example.
That’s a great idea! Thank ve thought about carrying a decoy wallet before, but a decoy phone is also a great idea
