I am sorry, but I do not see the point in wasting all the money on tenzor.  It is secure and i agree with the reviews here, but there is a cheaper way that is just as secure as wasting all this money.  Maybe down the line where the attacks on Bitcoin are more common and there are new methods of stealing it, trezor may be worth the investment, but not a this time.

When you say there is a cheaper way, I am skeptical.

The do-it-yourself method of securely storing and spending your coins involves hours of your time and buying a new laptop which never touches the internet.

Why is it a waste of money when you will just buy in for 90 dollars that is kinda good price for this kind of gadgets.
This TREZOR is good when you are going to just hold 50 or more bitcoin. The only when is waste of money when you have less than 5 bitcoins.

Attacks are already common. Have your bitcoin stolen by malware and you would change your mind right quick. If you can live without the screen Ledger sells the HW.1 for less than $20 shipped.

Most people don't have enough Bitcoins to justify investing in a Trezor because they think, "I would be able to buy BTC instead of this thing".
If you know what you are doing, you shouldn't fear any hacks, just don't install anything from a pirated source which usually include malware, and even then, most alarms from keygens and cracks are false positives.

Trezor is just fine to have if you want to hold your money.
For me I don't use trezor because I don't need it. I also don't have that many bitcoins.
Trezor is good when you have a lot and don't want to lose it for some hacker.

I got my trezor wallet today and I must say, I'm quite impressed so far. You could pretty much generate as many wallets from the seeds as you like(correct me if I'm wrong). And upon spending, it automatically sends the funds to a new address. The build quality could be better, as my trezor has something loose inside it(you can hear the rattling noise, when you shake it around). Also it's really light and has a pretty plastic feel to it. But overall having a peace of mind when I sleep, knowing that my coins are safe is definitely worth BTC0.23.

/forgot to add, that the I like the labeling feature as well.

I don't have one but I have yet to hear a negative thing about it. I'm kinda holding off because I'm afraid that if and when I get one, all these issues will start to come out.
If there's still no negative news about trezor I will get one mid 2016 probably.

I wish I had the Trezor about three months ago when I thought I lost about $10K worth of coins, sending them to a wrong address, ha! Luckily, it was a dormant wallet # I owned/forgot about, that I sent the coins to by accident. Had it not been, I would have been VERY upset with myself Tongue Been using for about a month now (thank you shadow  Smiley), and I am starting to see more benefits than I expected.

After hearing from a client how he got his coins stolen from a script/virus that automatically changed his clipboard, and he sent his coins to a scumbag, I am glad to have my trezor. There is a two-step process when sending coins which forces you to make sure all of your "i's are dotted/t's are crossed" before sending. I don't have the brain of a robot, and could possibly be distracted by a few outside influences sometimes, so its a nice option to have on the Trezor. If you are sending large amounts of coin in single transactions, the Trezor is a great option.

I see some comments with people concerned about the price. It would pay for itself the first time you could have potentially lost $100 worth of coins. Just say'n  Wink

If you carry your Trezor with you to use with Mycelium on Android you will appreciate the light weight. Also Trezor works perfectly with Mycelium, no problems at all. I tell friends who get a Trezor to consider it disposable and buy a back up in case you lose or break it and have to restore from seed.

I got a KeepKey to compare with Trezor and it is very pretty, easy to set up, but does not have the passphrase protection that Trezor has, at least on the Chrome extension. KeepKey is supposed to work with GreenBits on Android but after trying all evening I gave up and wrote support.

Considering using Mycelium with trezor or with few other wallet seems a good idea to me as we can us it as a cold and hot wallet at the same time, i have read some review from you but i am a bit surprised about other hardware wallet like ledger nano which has not the security level like keepkey.

KeepKey has its own quirks as well. Currently it does not work with a wallet on Android and you can not use passphrase protection for your seed with the Chrome App. Well, using a passphrase is important to me. Should someone manage to get my Trezor seed it is worthless without the passphrase. I think the KeepKey designers are trying to keep it as user friendly as possible for new users.

It is possible to passphrase protect accounts using KeepKey but you have to use Electrum instead, and it is a bit of a chore installing the Python dependencies you need on Windows. You can check out the instructions here.

In contrast to KeepKey multiple passphrase protected accounts are a snap to set up on myTrezor.com and you can use those same accounts on Mycelium on Android. The user manual for Trezor is much better than the documentation provided by KeepKey. I think they just need some time to add better user documentation to the KeepKey site.

I am still working with KeepKey to enable phone integration, there apparently is a problem with GreenAddress they are working on and I will update my hardware wallet review as I am able.

in my opinion trezor is safer than keeping coins on coinbase. and slightly safer than just running bitcoin core..
but it is not 100% fool proof, and the device itself does require some trust.
i agree, trezor is better than any other wallets imo, but i think the best one is just the paper wallet plain and simple. if you worry about security with the trezor, just switch to something thatll make you feel safer.

I have read too many stories of people losing bitcoin by using paper wallets improperly. I wrote an article about it Bitcoin Paper Wallets Are Not Safer Than Hardware Wallets. I have never heard a report of anyone using a Trezor losing bitcoin.

Trezor is a better hardware wallet than I thought so far it doing so good and no problem in the service and transaction issues.I guess it is more safer than the other hardware wallet in the market.

I wouldn't trust Trezor or any hardware wallet with storing any amount of Bitcoin because fancy things usually end up badly. I just could hold onto more Bitcoin if I actually go to a website and just download a Bitcoin client and store Bitcoins on it. A regular Paper Wallet could also get the task done if the money needed to get stored for a longer period of time, trying to use a hardware wallet is just for rich folks.

Generally indeed many among those who use the bitcoin get things less fun when storing bitcoin, or one might say they steal in bitcoin by people. Indeed it could not be at the stop, unless indeed we are more careful in doing something. This is a technology, surely every journey there there is always a sad thing, if you want to get an advantage then be someone who may well see something or everything will fall apart

Fuck you, you piece of shit signature spammer.

I hope you paid a huge amount for your high level account(s) and that this and all your other accounts you purchased just to spew this totally meaningless crap get perm banned. 

YOU, yes you personally, are the reason this forum is becoming tedious and worthless.

For Trezor: through wallet.trezor.io are Bitcoin, Dash and Zcash (t addresses only). Litecoin through Electrum-LTC and Ether/ETC through MyEtherWallet.

For Ledger Nano S: native support for Bitcoin, Litecoin, ETC/ETH, Dogecoin, Zcash (t addresses only), Dash, and Stratis. Monero and Ripple are on their roadmap but not implemented yet.
