I think the Hardware Wallet for now is the safest. The Hardware Wallet is a physical device that allows you to safely store all kinds of tokens, bitcoins and keep your private key offline.

How could a hardware wallet hacked by others? Hacking is only possible through the internet connection, so hacking hardware wallet is not a possible thing . So there is nothing to worry be cool.

It is possible if you don't care your wallet.  Just like for example you leave it online and the next person who sit your chair will try to hack your hardware wallet but if it is safe with your hands it is impossible to be hacked.

I think the hardware wallet vulnerability level of hacking is quite minimal, this is because the wallet hardware is rarely connected to the network and is online only when needed so there will be no hacking as long as the hardware wallet is not connected to the network

Most certainly it can be. For those you are skilled enough to do it will likely to hack you so. So it is up to you to secure your own hardware wallet.

As I think to hack money wallet software is very hard to hack. Unless you sign up to create a wallet on a fake page, you may be hacked, when you register on a reputable site it is difficult to hack. Therefore, to ensure safety, people should use cold wallets.

Let me telll you about one method how a hardware wallet might be hacked. They do not have to physically hack the hardware, they just
intercept the data or take control of your computer for a few minutes and in that time they quickly execute a "transfer" of coins to their Bitcoin adress. <They freeze inputs to your keyboard or they blank out the screen while you logged into the wallet>

The transfer process only takes a few seconds, so they only have to wait for you to access the hardware wallet and then they hijack the session.  Angry

No it is not depends on hackers it depends on your preservation your own information. Hacker is everywhere and they just wait for the chance to steal your assets. It can be hacked your account if you are a careless person.

Everywhere in the world is full of good and bad people. Similarly, the internet is filled with lots of good and bad people. These bad people on the internet are called hackers — and they constantly wait for opportunities to steal things. Hardware wallet  is offline wallet is not connected to the internet. So, it is impossible for hackers to get access to it. The only way someone can access your Bitcoins is if they get hold of your hardware wallet and are able to unlock it.

You have a point, it depends on how you keep secured your own  wallet.
Actually hardware wallet is the most safest wallet in the world of crypto like trezor, ledger nano etc. And if you want a solid secured you may used an offline wallet.

If a wallet is not connected to the network, the hacker cannot invade.
In the short term, the connection cannot be invaded.

The hardware wallets usually don't get hacked unless they've been modified by the seller, for this reason you should always buy from the manufacture's  website and not from resellers on Amazon, eBay etc. The private keys never leave the hardware wallet.

Someone can manipulate the address where you are sending (that's what I heard) so whenever you send from a hardware wallet, always check the receiving address.

I came across the fact that the hardware wallets are hacking .... maybe that's why now it's hard to improve it, it's right. Because we should be calm in its reliability, because there are not small savings for crypto-drivers

There is no way to hack this hard ware because based on this wallet there are reserved many keys like public and private keys of it gives you highest security to hold this also this was make for maintain security so there is very little chance to hack because .01% can’t be a matter of tension.

a hardware wallet is NOT offline! you connect it to a computer and what happens is that the hardware wallet is supposed to not leak your private keys out under any circumstances but due to bugs this can happen and there has been cases of this happening so it is not 100% safe.
