Unboxed the new Blockstream (npub1jg5…6n8n) Jade++ at the phoenixville meetup for show and tell:
+Build quality is great. Screen is crisp and clear. Camera works.
-Buttons are not intuitive. With the original jade, you wheel left and right with your left index finger and press the button with the right thumb. The Jade++ uses a button for each index finger and you can kind of hold it in this triangle pattern with your left thumb so you can leave your right thumb on the button, but you really just want to hold onto it firmly because it's so sleek and lovely and then you find you are moving your left thumb back and forth from the bottom of the device to the button.
Conclusion. It's exactly what I was looking for in a simple multivendor multisig setup and far exceeds my expectations....if it was $129
