I'f anyone of your friends have a Ledger Nano wallet you should ask them if you could check them out on how they work. My wife bought me one last christmas and it's awesome. You can make a segwit address wallet, and also in my opinion, the wallet interface is very nice and clear and also easy to use. The ledger comes with a card where you take your private key to store it safely and there also the extra layer of security when making transactions by having to click on the physical buttons on the device. I don't think it is a device for daily use but for storing cryptos it's good.
Check it out!
PS. There are other hardware wallets out there but I cannot speak for them because I haven't tried any other thatn the ledger nano s.
