Hardware wallets are the best form of crypto storage. Although I have never used the mentioned wallet, I don't believe I have ever seen any reviews that would justify not buying their products. Persnonally, I would rather grab a Trezor device instead.

Lists of open source hardware wallets: Open Source Hardware Wallets

Not all hardware wallets should be considered as a cold wallet until people reviewed it or you reviewed it. Example is Ledger Nano that are close source hardware wallets that are not cold wallets.

Properly set up paper wallets are cold wallets. Wallets on airgapped devices are cold wallets.

If you know how to set up a multisig wallet, it is better than a singlesig wallet.

Multisig can be combined with a cold wallet.

Let's say it's better for security on the one hand (compared to hot wallets), but if you buy such devices online with delivery to your address, you take the risk that your data will fall into the wrong hands. This has happened many times, including the company that produces the device you mention.

https://blog.bitbox.swiss/en/data-breach-of-marketing-platform-activecampaign/

If you ever decide to buy such a device, try to find an official reseller that has a physical store, or use PO Box as the delivery address and pay with cryptocurrencies.

If you are interested in experience with this device, there is a topic -> BitBox02 Experiences

Yeah, the correct way to say it is that wallet keeps key/s to user’s Bitcoin more technically UTXOs, while the Bitcoin itself more technically the UTXOs is stored everywhere on devices that maintain copy of blockchain with records of those UTXOs.

This reminds me the question some people ask when they think Big Bang started at specific point inside current Universe, not understanding that that “point” actually became our Universe as it expanded.

Bitbox is decent hardware wallet, but there are better options available in 2026, new Trezor devices are better in my opinion.
Trezor devices are upgraded with some new security such as in the Trezor Safe 7 which now uses

Next-gen TROPIC01 secure chip
New standard for advanced, verifiable crypto security

Certified EAL6+ Secure Element

Extra layer of physical protection for your crypto

Open-source security
Transparent, public code anyone can review, audit & verify

PIN protection
Protect your device with a up to 50 digits

Now more Optional Cold Wallets for Bitcoin storage with the latest security and some other supporting features.
