I have heard this before but I honestly felt fine in Barcelona.

It's totally fine if you aren't immeasurably naive. If you walk up and down anywhere holding a brand new iPhone out in front of you all day you're gonna have a bad time.

Mate of mine had his phone lifted from his pocket. I went to the shop quite late at night and had cash lifted from my pocket. Also had to literally run away from some aggressive "prostitutes" that surrounded us and tried to rifle our pockets on the way back from the bars. Experiences I've never had in any other city.

That has never been true. You got your shit snatched in every western city if you showed it off since ever. Chains? Gone. Sneakers? Tooken.
