You can lose the paper wallet too. You just have to be careful with the valuable things? It's not about these wallet but in general in your life.
I vote for trezor it is just phenomenal.

When you set up your trezor, it displays a series of words that you can transcribe into a paper wallet.  If you lose the trezor (or it's damaged, etc), you can regenerate your wallet with the word list.

The real value in the trezor is the ability to plug it into an untrusted PC and spend your bitcoin.

This destroys the "I lost my device" argument. But still, he's right, you can just print a paper wallet.

The reason I like Trezor is that private keys never leave the device. But accessing it's seed would be just as easy as accessing the private key of a paper wallet.

It's also a bit more convenient if you need access to cold storage frequently.

I haven't used trezor or paper wallet but just by reading the feedback given to trezor i'll go with trezor. I hope to get one this Christmas Smiley

I can't find any information if these devices the "case" and the trezor are waterproof in case we accidentally drop water on these devices. The "case" use fingerprint which makes it more secure?
I prefer both trezor and paper wallet(cheapest)

Trezor claims to be "water resistant" but not fully waterproof
Not sure about the Case, it has not been officially released yet
