Mobile phone insurance

Can someone recommend an insurance for mobile phone for my daughter.
She already has had an iPhone XS Max stolen, which I fortunately manage to claim on my contents insurance, but now she’ll be living in London for uni and I’d like her to still have cover, especially in London where crime is at a astronomical level

Have you checked whether students living away from home are covered under your existing policy?0

Have you considered getting a cheap phone for her to use while she is in London instead of something expensive like the Iphone?0

I claimed on the home insurance for a damaged tablet, after the claim the insurers basically said they won't cover it again after the claimSam Vimes' Boots Theory of Socioeconomic Unfairness:
People are rich because they spend less money. A poor man buys $10 boots that last a season or two before he's walking in wet shoes and has to buy another pair. A rich man buys $50 boots that are made better and give him 10 years of dry feet. The poor man has spent $100 over those 10 years and still has wet feet.
