Given the opportunistic theft of a smartphone worth HK$12,000 from an unconscious person, the sentencing starting point of 12 months was appropriate; applying a one‑third reduction for an unequivocal guilty plea produced a justified 8‑month sentence which is not excessive, and the court correctly ordered that the 8‑month term run consecutively to the separate sentence being served because the offences were independent.
