It might be good but even after the 50% discount i think it is too expensive.I have a Ledger Nano and I am very satisfied with my choice,if one day I decide to upgrade and spend more on hardwallet wallet I will turn in tested and more trusted options like Nano s and Trezor.

Hi everybody.
Gosh, I'd like to drop the prices more, but as is we are cutting it really close. These things are not cheap to make, as the case is metal and the screens are rather pricey.
We deliberately chose $98 so we would be $1 cheaper than Trezor...

By the way, yes, we had considerable stiffness in the early models on the keypad. That's all fixed, now the keys have a very satisfying "click" feel to them.

As to the website, well, it's shopify, it works, I'm looking at moving it over to a wordpress-style shop soon.

Any questions, I'm always ready to answer!

Bitlox has a lot of competition, especially at the low end.  I have a Trezor and a Ledger Nano, both of which work just fine (although I had to update firmware once on the Trezor as it would not work until I did the update -- maybe a year or so ago).

I also own an Opendime, which I am still testing.  Opendime is not quite a wallet, but close enough for me.  There is a thread on Opendime in "Project Development".  One thing that attracted me to Opendime is that the price is right...

The Trezor has a fair number of features, but my preference is for a reasonably cheap and easy to use wallet hardware device.  So, at least for the moment I am not interested in a Bitlox.

They have 50% promotions going on right now but seriously. Their full prices are too much. I mean the basic version of Bitlox wallet is $99.
And you can buy Trezor hardware wallet with that money. I think they seriously need to lower the prices a little more.
Plus, they had problems with that funky looking keyboard which is supposedly fixed for their newest wallets.

Anyone ordered their hardware wallet yet or not ? this is their website https://www.bitlox.com/ and It seems like It has some nice features but website doesn't look very  good (and powered by Shopify)  or anything serious so really wondering If it's something legit or not
Totally the problem of them are on their keyboard, but that's looks like so weird for me, here you go some argue from the bitlox.

I haven't bought/used their hardware wallet but I saw recently a post from them about this 50% off sale here https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.16668442 and this is the developer of the bitlox https://bitcointalksearch.org/user/bitlox-543491 I think it's better to see any (video) review from users.

It's fun trying out new hardware wallets (just don't get your fingers burnt in the process).

I think it cost too much for a hardware wallet. We have ledger the company with the cheapest price hardware wallets and they are portable enough, once you set them up you can keep them with you (small usb form + security card ) which you can easily keep in your pocket. I have bought them for 21 EUR transport included to Italy. So far I am very happy with it performance so I never look back. It's well worth the money and I suggest to you too to buy a cheap hardware wallet which does it job perfectly.
