Second one requires HD photography equipment and other stuff that a common thief would NOT have. And it requires that the thief has possession of your phone for a (long) length of time.
Activation LOCK for Apple allows you to LOCK your phone from afar if you lose it. And no fingerprint stuff can bypass it.
And by the way, unlike Samsung, TouchID only allows limited tries with fingerprint before resorting to passcode. My passcode for my iPhone is bank-level length and complexity.

This is because you are educated on your device. How many other iPhone users are as up on this as you? About the same as you would expect from Android users I bet.
That free Avast app I keep touting about (no affiliation by the way) does the same thing as your Activation LOCK. You can track the phone, lock it, wipe your data, set off an alarm siren, deactivate the ability to make calls and texts all remotely. Not too shabby for the price tag of free.
