The implementation of iOS7 on iPads and iPhones has resulted in less devices being stolen.
iPhone 5S and 5C has resulted in Apple IDs being locked to the owner , which means that if your device is stolen , even if the device is wiped the first thing that will appear on the screen is a request for the old owners Apple ID and password.
