I haven't been back here for a while and I've got a lot of work to do as a form of accountability for what I've done by making this thread Cheesy

Although this wallet is not only focused on bitcoin because there are some features that I will not use and of course there are some disadvantages but I will use this wallet for storing my bitcoin assets at this time. But I will probably only use this for a while because I still want something else for my Hardware Wallet.

Sorry for saying this and I don't want to ruin your fun, but Safepal hardware wallet is probably one of the worst hardware wallets you could buy at the moment.
Safepal is closed source black box from China, they stole and altered and violated original source code, and they are doing the same thing like ledger walelt with restore feature, but it's even worse because they are storing it in cloud Tongue

I wouldn't consider this to be safe device for anything and I wouldn't recommend it to anyone, especially when there are much better Open Source alternatives.

Thank you for the warning sir, I too now continue to be cautious but have been using for some time now even though it's only a portion of my assets moreover I feel a little sorry if it's been bought but not used.
On the other hand I am also still trying out some things with the wallet I have which is only 3 weeks old.

I'm also currently trying to find another hard wallet because there are so many warnings and conditions that are said to be not very secure and I'm also looking at some recommendations at the moment. do you have any suggestions for additions?

I think that's the department where they are responsible for parcels coming in and out of the country right? It maybe taxes that prevented your package to be shipped to you or something. It really is hard to trust that anyone who is calling you and asking for money is out there and be seen as a scam etc.

I haven't tried SafePal and I have read good reviews about it too. How are you doing with it OP?

That's the thing, I've never dealt with anything like this before because I rarely buy goods from overseas so I didn't really understand the taxation system that exists regarding overseas purchases so when a call asking for money for the parcel to be sent was made I was suspicious even though it was the truth but still I wasn't explained in detail and made my parcel return to the distributor.

In the last 3 weeks I tried to keep a small portion of my funds in safepal and tried a few times to also send and for the time being I don't really have a problem but when so many people say that this is not very good of course I also have a sense of concern and will probably look for a new wallet that is more secure.
Even though I haven't had any problems for the past 3 weeks, I'm still worried about it.

A big congratulations mate on the purchase of your very first hardware bitcoin wallet, this is very impressive and encouraging to most of us who still very much depend on wallets like electrum and Mycelium for storing our bitcoins, i personally can not wait to make the same move, i will probably have to find out if trezor and safepal both ship to my country, then i weigh the cost and see which to go for..
But now for those of you who are well experienced with this two wallet, and maybe ledger included, which of this is the best aside one being more expensive than the other? asking this because i know that for some products, being expensive does not necessarily mean they are the best.

You have to find out first mate, it's actually possible to send it but you have to pay attention to the regulations in your country in the tax system and others, don't let what happened to me happen to you Cheesy

Even though it is certain that the money is also returned but still there is a feeling that cannot be expressed when the item we want and have bought but does not arrive properly it is our money that returns.

I've never used SafePal. Based on your experience using it, is it comfortable and there are no worries?

Worries, of course there are especially many who remind that Safepal is closed source from China, they steal and change and violate the original source code just like @dkbit98 said, obviously this gives me concern.
I also still can't give much experience because I've only been using this for 3 weeks and only a few times I tried to transfer and receive bitcoins although so far it's been fine for me.
