Trezor Model T - Crypto Hardware Wallet with LCD Touchscreen, Protecting Bitcoin & 1000's of Coins with Maximum Security

Thanks

This is my first cold storage wallet. I have recently read that I shouldn't have the bulk of my cryptocurrency on exchanges like Binance, Gemini, Coinbase, etc., because it's not very secure (for a variety of reasons).So I heard that the Kubikey and the Trezor were very well liked by people smarter than I am.I got the Trezor because the article I read said that "it doubles as a cold storage wallet."So far, I'm pretty sure that's all this is--a cold storage wallet. It's not a U2F device, as far as I can tell.I don't think I can use this in lieu of my phone number as a U2F (using your phone # for 2FA is not very secure--not many people know that, I just read about it only recently).UPDATE: This does function as a U2F! It integrates with gmail (and I'm sure other sites) easily. U2F is like 2FA (2FA is when, for example, you put in your password (1FA), then the website sends a text message to your phone with a verification #. You put in that number as well, just so someone can't log in with just your password; problem with 2FA is that hackers have workarounds for 2FA, so they don't even need your phone.U2F solves all the security vulnerabilities that 1FA (password alone) and 2FA (password + verification code) carry with them. The only way to log into the website is to enter your password, AND ALSO have this special device and press the checkmark on it.This means that, even when the hacker knows your password (they probably do) and can gain access to a verification code sent to your phone (they might), they can't gain admittance to your website account unless they also have this device plugged into their computer (and know your secret PIN code for the device as well).In short, this is a hacker's worst nightmare.Before this arrived, I was worried that the USB cord was too short, which would mean it would be awkward every time I wanted to access my wallet. However, it is long enough for me to remain seated in my normal spot and comfortable use the Trezor.Other reviewers mentioned the keys being small, but I didn't encounter any problem at all (I have thin fingers though).One or two reviewers said something about the firmware tripping up when they tried to install, and one reviewer said you have to plug it directly into a USB port on the rear of your laptop (I don't know what he's talking about).I have a 4 port USB thing that plugs into one USB port on my laptop. I just plugged it into one of the 4 ports, and everything worked fine.

I got the Trezor and was going to use it with the Exodus Wallet, but I realised Trezor has the Trezor Suite which can be run on Chrome or on a Windows / Mac / Linux app. It supports various coins and supports Bitcoin (Native SegWit) which is the latest version with low transaction fees, your wallet address starts with 'bc1'. Trezor still has the older Trezor Wallet which does not support Native SegWit for Bitcoin and they will transition to Trezor Suite totally soon. As for 100% total protection you can enable a passphrase or hidden wallet feature where you need to enter an additional passphrase to access your wallet. This way someone has to know your PIN and Passphrase which only you will know to access your wallet. With the Trezor model T you can enter the passphrase on the Trezor and not the browser or app, this way no connection to the internet with a compromised malware affected PC with a keylogger. I love it! You can have many passphrase wallets, each accessible with a different passphrase. Make sure you remember them well as they are case sensitive and there is no way to recover if you forget the passphrase.Works on android mobile with Chrome, have to connect the Trezor with a USB-C to USB-C cable to the android phone. Works just like on the PC with Chrome or the separate Trezor Suite App.To recover your wallet with a passphrase incase your Trezor is lost or damaged, I think you will need another Trezor to setup your wallet with the recovery phrase and then load your wallet again with the passphrase.There is a lot of information on Trezor website about all this. All in all a great device. Nobody can physically hack the Trezor model T and get to your wallet if you have a passphrase wallet. No privacy issues as well where you need to give any details about yourself to Trezor.I know the Ledger had a privacy breach where database with user information like names, addresses and emails were hacked and stolen. Nothing like that will happen on the Trezor model T. Use it with confidence!

It was really easy to use as juts plug in into my laptop and follow the instructions, I was able to transfer all my assets without any problems or issues. Also it feels way secure than using a cold wallet.Great product and offer multiple safety features.

Excellent cold wallet. Exactly as described. Well explained getting started and support. A bit pricy.
