Verdict
Both providers are practically level in our overall rating (4.6 to 4.7).
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.
The Safe 5 tops a good many comparison tests in 2026, and deservedly so: it combines open-source transparency with a modern touch interface. If you want to be able to audit what your wallet actually does, this is currently the most complete package on the market.
