Trezor Safe 5 - Crypto Hardware Wallet with Secure Element & Passphrase, Color Touchscreen and Haptic Feedback, Protect your Bitcoin and Digital Assets (Violet Ore)

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

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.

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

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.

The best of the best

Functionality:I love it

Product is very sharp and sleek i love the touchscreen its alittle complicated to use if you are new to crypto the device works perfectly however the actual trezor system and interface needs a ton of work you can track cryptos or see what you own coinbase is much easier to track your progress and coins even though this is safe it is not easy to watch your crypto and see if the price goes up or down and even hard to sell or purchase. Safety im sure its awesome but you dont get any ease of use.

Though I did'nt take a picture of the plastic-wrapped box with the green tear seal intact (and it was!) before opening it with glee, I did take a picture of the freshly-opened box with the Safe 5 WITH the security foil tape intact as displayed in my included pic. Since Amazon IS a "trusted reseller" of Trezor products, I figured if the item DID arrive compromise I'd just send it back. Welp, no need to, IT'S PERFECT. All set up and works fine. Will now get one for my wife. Super pleased!
