Verdict
Both providers are practically level in our overall rating (4.6 to 4.6).
The best-looking hardware wallet on the market – and the most expensive. If you want the finest handling and price is secondary, the Stax will not disappoint; in purely functional terms, the far cheaper Nano series protects your keys just as well.
The most consistent choice for bitcoiners: the same hardware as our Safe 5 test winner, but with minimal firmware. If you only hold BTC, this cuts your exposure without costing you anything in usability.
