7/ Bitkey
For this one, no "good, bad, and neutral", as I was never able to complete the setup. I'm not writing-off bitkey, they delivered a high quality product, and I hope with future releases to see improvements, but this one is just too locked down.
To start you can only use it with their app. Not the main issue, but would be nice if it could be used with other wallets. Next, at least for android, it requires Google Drive. If you are a Bitcoiner, or on that journey, you will inevitably become more privacy conscious.
Depending how deep you go down that path you may not have Google, which is my case. Not having Google, I just abandoned it. Maybe with future software releases they will support other cloud providers, but for now nothing. I will wait and see.
I'm sure it will appeal to some user base, but if you are on bitcoin twitter/x, you are not one of them, all other hardware wallets mentioned above are better options for you.
