TrezorSafe 5 - Crypto Hardware Wallet with Secure Element & Passphrase, Color Touchscreen and Haptic Feedback, Protect your Bitcoin and Digital Assets (Black Graphite)

Easy to use a secure, I really like the battery-less feature. It was what I was looking for.

Awesome product at a great price…very secure!!! Thank you!!!

I’m new to crypto and cold wallets and spent hours and hours on YouTube learning what they are and how to use them. I was attracted to this one due to its touchscreen and features.Getting it setup is super easy using the app on my laptop. I do have an iPhone but because of Apple’s restrictions for USB hardware devices, you have to use a PC for the setup. There is an iPhone app which is called Lite because it has less functionality than the PC. Don’t let that stop you because the normal use of a cold wallet is storage, not spending. A hot wallet (a phone app) would be the spending wallet.So I set up the Safe 5 easily and copied all my seed words. Then I transferred a small amount of crypto from Robinhood. I wanted to be familiar with what happens if I lose my wallet, or it fails or is damaged, so I did a factory reset. From there I followed the apps instructions for restoring my wallet, pretending my Safe 5 was a new wallet, and within 10 minutes, my wallet was fully restored. Super easy!I used to stack gold and silver and have sold it all for BTC. So much easier to handle BTC instead of physical metals. Now I don’t worry about someone breaking into my home, cracking open my safe and taking my wealth. Now when I travel anywhere, so long as I know my seed words, I am taking my wealth worldwide because I can recreate my wallet if I can get ahold of a new cold wallet. It doesn’t have to be the Safe 5 either. So long as I protect my seed words, I can’t lose my wealth, whether from me one day needing them and not having them or from someone finding my seed words and creating my wallet from them. With cold wallets, you aren’t protecting coins or the hardware wallet, you’re protecting the seed words.

The media could not be loaded. Two Trezors, the password keeper later and $500, I still don't have a functioning and secure Trezor wallet.The first wallet arrived, but I didn't open it until after the return period. When I did, surprise surprise, the tamper proof seal was dog earred and looked like it had been removed and reapplied.I didn't think to take a video and picture, which Trezor wanted. So that money's gone. But now I still have a $100 keep, so I order another.The second one arrives. I wish I had spent more time inspecting the other side of the so-called tamper proof seal. But as you can see it looks applied crooked.Then when I pulled it off, it didn't leave any "void marks" on most of the device as you can see in the video.If the so-called tamper proof seal isn't leaving the void marks to indicate the device was not tampered with, how is it tamper proof?Finally, who does their shrinkwrap? It looks like something that was done in basement, not part of a professional manufacturing process. But I guess that assumes the two wallets I received were not tampered with.Either way, the company's failure to deliver a single wallet with its own safety features intact means I'm out $500 and still don't have a functioning wallet.The second wallet, in this video, remains in some mysterious part of the return process with my refund tied up. (Update) After numerous complaints and calls I finally received a partial refund. Now, I'm only out $300.

Easy set up. Easy use. Not as intimidating as I imagined.

Great product! It’s easy to set up and use.

Works as advertised, and seems to use a clever & complete enough approach to security (but I’m no pentester, and I suggest maintaining very low expectations about any crypto-anything). Recovery is slightly painful given the itty-bitty space available for touch input, but that’s fine. An optical scroll wheel would be useful without affecting waterproofness, but I’m probably aging myself by suggesting *physical* controls. (Heaven forfend.)Also, I was a tiny bit surprised that there wasn’t (e.g.) a fingerprint scanner involved, given the handshaking interactions. I suppose it’s nice to *be able* to use it without one, but … price point, so occasional niceties are nice.I was a bit surprised at its modus operandi, given the “wallet” title. No internal battery, fully USB-powered when plugged in—there’s flash in there, so definitely make sure you power it up once a year, but it’s mostly read-only once configured, and between firmware updates. It serves less as a wallet (which would actually store the currency, which isn’t a thing for crypto), and more as a means of handshaking between apps and its owner, and as a source of key data for enc-/decryption of the necessary wallet info on the host/network side of things—similar in principle to a Yubikey or other access token, but more interactive, and probably with more stored data onboard.As such, although Amazon wants me to mention storage capacity, that’s not all that visible or relevant—something like this could easily run from like 128 KiB total primary + secondary memory, and you wouldn’t notice a difference if it were megs or gigs’ worth.For whatever reason, I never have the durn thing right-side up when I boot it, so I momentarily panic that it or my USB host is dead. I understand the violent, insatiable urge towards sleekness, but practical design would suggest more front-back asymmetry, since the USB jack no longer induces any. (Maybe a bevel on the front and rounded back would help.)It’s nice that there are apps, but they’re fairly bare-bones (esp. around staking or management of mutable data), and they’re missing some useful features for some reason. The graph of inflow/outflow per currency is …fine, if utterly useless for my purposes, but there’s no graph of real-money value over time, even though value info *is* fetched and displayed as a one-off, and no graphs of e.g. totals. (Currencies are too thoroughly siloed on all fronts, which seems to be the main design issue at fault.) But then, maybe I’m not the primary use case—I dumped some money in and am mostly hodling—and people don’t want to do wacky stuff like … see if the value of their “money” has suddenly tanked or spiked due to Orange Pronouncements or onset of thermonuclear war, or see whether their anxieties and self-recrimination should be fully unleashed by missing such a catastrophe’s myriad investment opportunities.Amazon also wants me to mention size, but that’s also irrelevant; it’s small, but in general this is not something you’ll carry around with you, because cryptocurrencies are mostly not used as currency. If you want to pay for something with crypto, 9 times out of 10 your easiest route is to sell it into real money and use that. The app can help with this, but it’s not a transaction any merchant would want to stand there waiting for you to complete.Finally, it would also be *really* nice (given $$price$$) for this to come with some sort of container or pouch that could be used for both the wallet and a cable or two, if you *did* want to carry it around for some reason. The packaging Trezor things come with goes all to pieces, so you can’t even store it in the box it came in, and then it’s not a good idea, just makes something more obvious to steal.All the same, there’s always something fancy-special about large distributed systems actually working right, so seeing abstract-money hop into the right wallet was fun, and always reassuring when it’s the right amount.

Purchase was simple, was shipped in a timely fashion. Received intact n sealed..all good
