Many of this is actually fearmongering from HWW manufacturers.
I agree a separate device is useful for security, but from there the arguments start to make no sense.
For example, many “attacks” on USB are due to tradeoffs between security and performance (DMA and similar) and devices trusting anything to be what it says like a keyboard.
All the USB stacks on hardware wallets are impossible to attack because they are simple and they don’t allow anyone to just input fake clicks.
The offline part you mean?
Regardless of that walking around with a phone that has your stack on it isn’t the best idea imo
Yes. Having a phone with your stack is a bad idea, and putting it on the same device. There are documented sandbox escapes that could let attackers talk with the SE and steal your funds.
But if it is a dedicated device, no issue there.
I understand. If it’s a dedicated device. What’s the appeal of having a phone subscription on it? Do some buying and selling directly on it? Wouldn’t that phone line be kyced?
Pretty sure the sol phone has to be shipped kyc, I haven’t seen it in a store yet either.
