Some risk are not worth taking, they are criminals with intent to kill to steal , once you see no chance to escape from them the best would be to give them the phone and protect your precious life nothing in this world is bigger than life highest that phone will be 300k

He obviously underestimated the threat posed by a knife. He wouldn't have resisted if it was a gun.

Many would not tamely surrender their expensive phone to a knife-wielding thief.

Surrendering one's phone to hoodlums when they attack, is a life-saving decision as phones can be replaced but not life.

May his soul rest in peace.
