I saw a video and he said that it was only possible to labeling the transaction if you was connected to dropbox. What do you guys say about that? Doesn't sounds as something that you want to share with them..

Trezor creates a folder in user's Dropbox and stores data there. Dropbox cannot learn about your addresses and labels since Trezor automatically encrypts all the data. I don't use this feature anymore. In the future, it will be possible to save labels to an external SD card on Trezor T.

Ok. Started to wounder about my backup device (model one) that I probably don't need it since it's so easy to restore it on electrum. I haven't decided yet but what is your take on a backup device?

Trezor T is my "daily driver" because of its enormous screen and passphrase entry. I use Trezor One as a backup since I got it for free for helping out with Trezor web interface translation. It's small so it is fairly easy to hide. Anyway, if something happened to my Trezor T, I would buy a new one. I have some coins on my phone (Samourai wallet) just in case I needed some money.

I also had Ledger Nano S and Nano X. I guess I'll stick to Trezor and Electrum if I ever need to recover my wallet. You should be fine with Electrum if your device breaks or gets lost, but don't import your seed there unless it happens.

I have applied for Trezor affiliate program, but I am waiting for them to review my application so I can't PM you a refferal link yet. If you don't mind waiting, I should get one next week. Feel free to ask me any questions once you get your device.
