Verdict
Both providers are practically level in our overall rating (4.6 to 4.6).
Alongside Trezor's Bitcoin-only devices, this is the first choice for Bitcoin purists in Europe – Swiss build quality, open source and a minimal codebase.
If you manage a broad portfolio and want to reach your wallet from your phone, the Nano X remains a first-choice device in 2026. If you have no use for Bluetooth, the cheaper Nano S Plus gives you virtually the same protection for a fraction of the price.
