What is the best solution for inexperienced user?

My father is goong to have his birthday soon, and I want to buy him a hardware wallet. Last year I bought him some btc, and this year I would like to teach him how to keep btc in a safe way.

5000 sats to the one, who will suggest me the best solution for a new btc user.

There is only one condition, it should work with android phones

P.S. My father's birthday will be in july so if some wallets are going to be released by then, you can suggest them.

I am a bic fan of ledger.

The nano x has Bluetooth and should work with android.

They also release the new ledger staxx(?) which has a big display. I think the inventor of ipod designed it. Should be very intuitive ✌️

Can't examine source code. Not good enough.

Don’t get caught up by the nft display fearure … your dad doesn’t need that 😅

I have used a safepal and now I use Arculus.

This one seems to be popular for BTC only.

Ledger nano S or X

Or the Blockstream Jade

Ledger shitcoinery has become unbearable. So much so I don’t consider it good for noobs - despite having great UX.

I heard good things about jade as well as bitbox02 tho

I’ve been told #[5]​ is a no-brainer

Same for me

True! UX is great on ledger but you it’s full of shitcoin shit so maybe better use a Bitcoin only solution.

I would say Blockstream Jade (price, quality, Bitcoin only, open source, very good security, small and looks nice, user friendly)

I would probably go with the jade too. The specs are great

Zap!

If you ever need some more help… just DM me 🫂🫂

Watch out with Ledger’s etc: don’t let your father be tempted to access shitcoins

I can’t zap you if you don’t have a LN address thank you for reposting, now pls set up your LN addy ⚡️

Bro, I would get a block stream jade. Bitcoin only, open source, blockstream is a long time contributer to Bitcoin. Adam back is the goat and a pillar of the community and cyberpunk movement that made all this possible. Lots of good things.

Green (companion app) is available on all platforms.

Should be very beginner friendly, Bitcoin only, and green has fantastic UI.
