Weighing up if I want to spend the extra $100 on a Coldcard Q vs MK4.

If I don’t care about having the qwerty keyboard is the QR scanner and self contained power worth the extra money?

It's pretty nice to have.

Do you feel like your setup would be less secure without it or is it more of a convenience?

Definitely just more convenient.

Earlier this day somebody posted a note saying “if you consider model Q because of QR then don’t”. Don’t know why though.

I would’ve bought the Q had it been out when I bought my MK4. It would be easier and more convenient to have the QR capability.

With NFC, I think the MK4 is cool. I bought the MK3 before the MK4 existed so I have to deal with SDcards and usb adapters.

Ideally, you don't use the USB connection directly to your PC or smartphone.
