Which model to choose, you can see here -
[BIG LIST] Hardware wallets (80+). Dogecoin I would not give. Bitcoin would be better. But between BTC and Hardware Wallet, I would prefer HW, because it will be a physical, material gift, and not something abstract and not tangible, like crypto currencies. I'm trying to take into account your uncle's age, and therefore the habits of the older generation, for whom tangible gifts may be the best option.
Ratimov originally created this list of hardware wallets, but it's been years since his original post and some of these wallets are no longer available or have been discontinued by their manufacturers. I've taken the liberty of translating his list, putting together my own updated version here:
[VELIKA LISTA] Hardverski novčanici, and I will continue to update this list as new hardware wallets are released.
Although the post is in Croatian, it gives a broad overview of available devices, links to official websites and price information. The list also includes a few comments on each device, as well as a link to a review article where you can learn more about the security of each wallet.
Yes, this is true and you are really right that during this time some of the hardware wallets in this list may not be relevant. Great, you've done a good job, but a croatian topic might be a bit of a hassle for english-speaking forum members. Have you thought about making an english version of your list of HW devices?

Bitcoin is certainly the best choice, but why should the OP give DOGE, doesn't he have other options besides DOGE?
I also agree about the hardware wallet gift being an option for a gift, because the prize requires a physical gift and a hardware wallet is a choice. The hardware wallet can also be filled with bitcoin assets, quite easy and of course it will be meaningful. Old age will not be a problem as long as you still want to know new things or new technology.
Regarding hardware wallets, maybe Trezor, Ledger, and Safepal, because I've used all three wallets..
I have no idea why OP chose DOGE. Perhaps, in his opinion, this is an excellent altcoin. I can’t say anything for him.
Old age will not be a problem for learning new technologies and devices, but be aware that the familiarization process may take longer than for younger people. Also, as a rule, older people always have problems interacting with modern gadgets, due to their little experience of interacting with this, unlike young people.
