I now have hardware wallet ledger nano s for more than 1 year, i never had problem with it. I think is more safe and secure to have a hardware wallet, because even on linux i see some kind of viruses.
Hardware wallet most secure i got recommendation in many users. I have been using hardware wallet from several months but i scared about my computer protection i mean if unfortunately i will be face pc hacking incident when hacker able to hack my wallet. I think Paper wallet is better than hardware wallet.
"Paper Wallets" (which are nothing else than your private-key written on paper) shouldn't be less secure than hardware-wallets

For hardware-wallets it doesn't matter if your PC is affected by malware... the private-key is isolated from the host.
