Pros and cons, side by side

Ledger Nano S Plus

What works

Cheapest current Ledger at $59 on Ledger's own store
Same ST33K1M5 secure element, certified to CC EAL6+, as the $399 Stax
Far more coin app storage than the original Nano S it replaced
No Bluetooth and no battery, so there is no radio attack surface and nothing to wear out

What to watch

No iOS support: Ledger's system requirements list Windows, macOS, Ubuntu and Android only
Cable only, so you cannot sign from a phone without plugging in
The 128 x 64 pixel screen turns checking a long address into a multi step scroll
Closed source firmware, unlike Trezor and BitBox

OneKey

What works

Four signing models from $79 to $278, including a bitcoin-only Classic 1S Pure
Companion app on iOS, Android, Windows, macOS, Linux and as a browser extension
Firmware and apps are developed in public on GitHub
Faulty devices are replaced rather than repaired, so no repair shop handles your hardware

What to watch

Not bitcoin-only outside the Classic 1S Pure bitcoin edition
Specifications vary widely across the range, so the brand name alone tells you little about the device you are buying
Researchers opened a OneKey Mini in 2023 with physical access and lab hardware, which OneKey patched but which is part of the brand's record
No published shipping country policy: the help center article that should carry one returns a 404
A shorter public track record than Ledger, Trezor or Coinkite
