I went to take a look at their website: digitalbitbox.com, looks like an interesting product!

I like the use of the chip (like Ledger I suppose), I also like the fact that they say it will be simple and that there will be no firmware updates.  Both my Ledger Nano and Trezor are asking me to update firmware...  

I look forward to finding out how much it will cost and become available.

i would estimate that it will cost 20-40 Euro/Dollar. no firmware updates would be cool indeed.

That price range is very reasonable, I hope that it is priced so.

As a general rule, simplicity is something I admire and like in such products.  Firmware updates are not only a hassle (mild, we hope), but introduce risks, I believe some people had problems with a Trezor firmware update (I did not do the update).  "A BTC wallet for the rest of us!"

But are Trezor wallets still seen as the gold standard?
I would like to get my security in order before investing significantly in Bitcoin.  Electrum with 2FA seems pretty safe and a good encryption seems pretty safe, but I am thinking of a Trezor.

It does seem to have the same issue as a small precious metals safe though, someone can just steal the safe!

Trezor is still a good choice i would say because it has a display. that is a nice feature but Ledger will have something like that too in the future.

maybe you should split your funds into a trezor and a second device.

It is really a secured wallet?

Yes,  I'm eager to know more about ledger's new wallet, it might  well be what we've wanted.

I'm aware of that illustration. I just feel his will be quite good. I hope it's price is just like the ledger, or any a bit more, which will lead to large scale adoption

The HW1 Wallet I'm referring to
But also B-Wallet lock OK
Waiting pm.

@LiteCoinGuy: Please remove BWallet. It is not at all a secure wallet.^[1] Also, please add put an "Open Source" tag to open source wallets. It is helpful. Thank you!

HW1 is secure but BWallet is not^[1].

FYI: OP is not selling these wallets. It is just a list of hardware wallets.

As a non-expert, I like BOTH the Trezor and the Ledger Nano.  I have one of each.  Both work well.

But, I look forward to each of their new products, especially if they can keep them from being overly-complex to the casual user (using then once a month say).

New products are always welcome, as is LiteCoinGuy's thread (and everyone's experiences).  Communicating user experiences is a wonderful thing for such obscure products (and they are obscure..., for everyone not using Bitcoin).

FABULOUS thread, LCG!

BitExchange to release new hardware wallet soon:

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1103030.msg11740622#msg11740622

thanks for your attention.

@LiteCoinGuy: Please remove BWallet. It is not at all a secure wallet.

This might have changed now, as they've updated along with new TREZOR firmware versions - https://github.com/bwallet/bwallet-mcu

People interested to know more could keep an up to date diff between all cloned firmwares (so far that's TREZOR, BWallet, EWallet (not sure they published anything though) and BitExchange)

If BWallet had no problem adding tracking supercookie when it released, I don't think it will be hard for them to do again. It's better not to buy wallets from shady/untrustworthy developers and listing it here may put someone else in danger.

Hope they actually deliver and it wasn't all just another scam.
Good thing I only contributed 5 bux.
