I'd love to buy one, but budget tells me not to yet. Sad

Gonna stick up with the traditional paper wallets first before I get mine. Btw, what's the difference between Case and Trezor? Aside from the price, of course.

Yeah me too.$200 is a bit too expensive for me at the moment. However this wallet has a really cool small and flat design.Hopefully in the next months I will be able to afford one. Or it might get a bit cheaper in the future when more competition is taking place.

Case comes with free global Internet access for the life of the device so you can use it to execute transactions all over the world.

How "free", and how long do the manufacturers expect these things to last? There's some serious missing detail in that part of this particular deal.

The company baked lifetime GSM access into the $200 cost. Who knows how long any gadget will last. When Case was designed maybe they did not anticipate the easy integration of smartphone bitcoin wallets with Trezor or Ledger for private key control. If you already have an Android phone, you can just install the Mycelium bitcoin wallet and use Trezor with an OTG cable to sign transactions. You can scan QR codes and send bitcoin like Case but you maintain complete control over your private keys. Not as elegant as Case but half the cost.

This is the most positive feature for me ---> " Case doesn't rely on your phone or computer for Internet access. It has built-in GSM with free unlimited transactions in over 100 countries!"
I think this is just a gimmick to make the masses visit Xotika, and nothing more about bitcoin or its impact in the society and economy. It would be nice if she actually use bitcoin, and not just receive > converts it. She just promote bitcoin for the tips, I think.
I normally are not a big fan of fingerprint scanners, but this might just be a good idea. The fact that it's the size of a credit card, is just a bonus.

I will give this one a try... if it's good enough... I will chuck my Trezor... not really. Wink

Wow, just a quick look on Case made me want to have it, really. That super-thin physical wallet is nice and 'handy', though a little pricey. Sad

The built-in GSM is what makes it unique, too.

Thanks for the link and a positive review. Looking forward to order one.

The features seem really good, but the casing itself looks a bit flimsy to me.

Anybody else has this feeling?

I guess it will soon be time to order a hardware unit like this.

Hey, So my Case came in the mail a couple days ago. I have to say I really like it.
It's about the size of 4 credit cards, if you stack them.
After setup, it is very easy to use. I chose to keep the third recovery key myself rather than trusting a third party company that could go belly-up. So that took a little more preparation than the average person. Most people will just keep the third recovery key with Third Key Solutions.
For info, they ask email, phone, and recovery questions. I suppose if you go the way of Third Key Solutions they will ask more questions. Then if you want (and have a bank), you can set it up further to be able to buy and sell the bitcoins straight from the device.

It's sleek. You pretty much turn it on, scan the QR code, and swipe your finger. And when it's not in use I've got it in my (credit card) wallet.
It's also like super secure, but you don't feel the security. It doesn't make you suffer because it is secure.

Great job CryptoLabs!

Glad you got yours. I ordered as soon as pre-orders were up and am still waiting. How did they ship yours and did they send you tracking if I may ask?

Seems pretty good, never heard of it

I'd definitely like to try it. How's the QR code decryption accuracy? Would you be able to share a video of it working?
