If you like privacy but so-so about iPhones in the past, get one now

It’s not that encryption can’t be broken. But by not having the encryption key makes it nearly impossible when the iPhone or iPad is locked says Apple. 

In response to a warrant, Apple remarked that iOS8 and later made the request to unlock a iPhone/iPad impossible and if it had to make available in future releases (storing keys) or create a backdoor, that would violate the trust of customers and smear the band’s reputation for digital privacy and security.  Further, Tim Cook referenced the Constitution when it came to decide privacy vs security…
Furthermore, law enforcement can't make you unlock unless you're using the Touch ID - since that is not revealing anything we don't know (unless the passcode you self-generated)... Of course, you can keep mis-entry your passcode to lock it longer, passcode is require upon 48 hours of Touch ID inactivity, and a restart forces passcode entry irregardless...just options
