The best portable wallet: Coolwallet S
While all the devices present are small enough to be portable, only the Coolwallet S is small enough to fit in the wallet along with credit cards. A marvel of engineering, slim design and e-paper display let you check your balance, send and receive BTC, BCH, ETH, LTC and XRP while on the go. The device connects to the Coolbitx mobile app via Bluetooth, eliminating the need for a desktop computer altogether. Its sleek profile and ease of use make Coolwallet S the best of the leading hardware devices for choice and use in everyday life.
No other hardware portfolio can match Ledger's trusted Nano S for multi-currency compatibility. The French producer constantly adds new coins, with the latest additions now destined to the publication of first Tuesday of each month. Added the first edition of #FirstTuesdayCrypto PoA, Icon, Vechain, Wanchain, Ontology, Kowala, Particl and RSK. In addition to supporting ERC20 tokens, Ledger's Nano S supports a continually growing list of cryptocurrencies. If you have a wallet of different coins and want the convenience of storing them on a single device, Nano S is the best solution. Despite some rumblings with the Chrome software and the desktop software Ledger Live the Nano S remains a much appreciated device.
Best No-Nonsense Wallet: Keepkey
Keepkey's hardware portfolio makes no sense as it works right out of the box and is sturdy enough to handle most of things that life can throw at him. Its angular design makes it less pleasant than Coolwallet, and its basic characteristics mean it is less elaborate than the Ledger Nano S. However, the strength is simple, and while the Nano S is subject to connectivity issues, depending on the desktop and wallet device you are using, the Keepkey finished the job at the first request, storing the BTC, BCH, ETH, LTC, DOGE, DASH and ERC20 tokens. He also got the integration with Shapeshift, his parent company.
Best High Security Wallet: Trezor Model T
All the hardware portfolios here are highly secure and, if used properly, should be safe from common attack vectors. It is hard to say categorically, therefore, that a particular device is safer than another. What can be said with certainty, however, is that the new model by Trezor is equipped with a wide range of security features including a write-protected bootloader that verifies the firmware signature and the support of the passphrase BIP39. For maximum prudence, Trezor's Model T is a very safe bet.
Whatever hardware device you choose, remember that it is only safe when you do it. This includes maintaining the recovery seeds in a very safe place with an additional copy stored elsewhere for redundancy. While Ledger, Trezor, Keepkey and Coolwallet are not the only options, their flagship models cover most bases and set standards for other manufacturers.
