This list (https://www.ledger.com/supported-crypto-assets) contains 1,355 entries, so pretty similar figures.

It really is a meaningless statistic though. Ignoring the fact that 99.9% of altcoins and tokens are completely pointless and/or an outright scam, according to https://etherscan.io/tokens, there are over 250 thousand different ERC20 tokens on Ethereum, all of which can be supported by any wallet which supports Ethereum. There are also a bunch of other platforms with thousands of their own tokens, so both wallets could honestly claim they support 250k+ assets.

If it works for you, great, but you should be aware that fingerprint spoofing is surprisingly easy, and biometrics in general are not a good way to secure your data. You leave fingerprints which can be used to break in to your hardware wallet on everything you touch, including on the hardware wallet itself.
