5/ Good Keystone (npub16s4…4p24) 3 Pro
+ High quality build, solid materials, feels almost like a smartphone
+ Open source
+ Good size, not too big not too small
+ Allows up to 3 wallets, could see this coming in handy for some use cases
Neutral Keystone 3 Pro
~ Good experience though I found the "..." menu on top a bit hidden, found myself navigating through menus searching to then find the options I was looking for where there. For the dice rolls I had to search online, initially didn't find it
~ I am a fan of dice rolls for entropy, but it is a heated topic, as not doing it correctly can end with lost funds. I would improve the experience here by requiring either 50 for 12 words or 99 for 24 words. Right now you can create 24 words with 50 rolls
~ Would love to see a keypad scramble option for the pin, especially due to the touchscreen and fingerprints remaining
~ The bitcoin-only firmware is in the early stages, but it has a lot of potential, and I believe we will see quick improvements
Bad Keystone 3 Pro
- Not a fan of the SD card slot positioning. Really had a hard time getting cards in. That said, its not something used regularly, only used it for firmware updates
- Built-in battery that cannot be removed. Not optimal for cold storage
Overall
Better than expected. It's easy to use and feels like using a software wallet. I would recommend this to someone starting self-custody, a friend/family member, who isn't going to go all the way down the rabbit-hole. Also perfect as a signer in a multisig setup
