It comes wrapped in a nice box with index cards, one being an instruction, and another with 24 blank spaces for you to write down your private key. The device itself is completely restorable and replacable as long as you maintain this, and the best part is the company never has your private keys. plug the USB into your computer and the device will turn on. In order to add or remove apps and update firmware you have to download the google chrome extension for the ledger manager and the extensions for whichever wallets you want to use whether it be bitcoin or ethereum, dogecoin, etc.
The software is very easy to use and you have the ability to install new apps as they become available. Also installed with it is FidoU2f which will allow you to use the device as a multifactor key. Super easy multifactor solution. I set mine on my Google account and it signs me in seamlessly after I enter my password and have the device plugged in.
My only complaints about this device is that it needs to be plugged into your computer to work and it requires you to have google chrome and install their extensions. It would be nice if it worked without having to plug it in since there are some places I don't have access to a computer. They do have one called "nano ledger blue" that supposedly works with smartphones but the price is quite a bit higher. Other than that this device is portable and works great!
Pros - portable, discrete, easy to restore
Cons - requires a computer and google chrome to run
The device arrived in shrink-wrapped packaging. There was no sketchy scratch-off card with my recovery passphrase written on it, which would have been an immediate red flag based on recent news stories involving theft from compromised Ledger wallets. The wallet itself did have a bit of "foggy" residue on the metal cover, which other reviewers have pointed out. This wiped off easily. I figure it was machine grease or some artifact of the manufacturing process. I verified that the device hadn't been pried open to tamper with the electronics inside. I also let the device generate my recovery phrase (*never* use any recovery phrase that is not generated by the device itself), then I intentionally erased the wallet and restored it using the phrase I had written down. Absolutely no issue.
The peace of mind that this wallet brings is invaluable. It's far more user friendly than using paper wallets. With all the news about Tether threatening the solvency of major cryptocurrency exchanges, there was no chance I was going to keep my funds anywhere where I did not control my private keys. I previously had funds stored in software wallets on my home PC, but the fact that it was connected to the internet at all was a liability, and managing multiple wallets (each of which, in many cases, stored a copy of the entire blockchain locally) was cumbersome and space-intensive. Not to mention the chance of hard disk failure on the 5-year-old machine.
Using the wallet is more user friendly than I expected it to be. The interfaces of the various wallets are simple and the applications themselves are less clunky than many of their software-based brethren. The Ledger supports all but one of the cryptocurrencies that I hold, and it feels great knowing that my funds are locked down offline but still easily accessible if I need to send some coins somewhere.
My only gripe is that the wallet can only hold five apps at a time. I understand that this is for security reasons (less space available on the device to store and run potentially malicious code). It's only a minor inconvenience, however, because it is quick and easy to uninstall/reinstall various apps (your funds do NOT disappear, contrary to a common misconception), and you rarely have to switch apps anyway unless you're frequently day trading.
I'd recommend the Ledger Nano S to anyone whose cryptocurrency holdings exceed 10x the value of the device. It's a worthy investment.
