I don't really know Tangem, but I do have a Trezor Safe 3 which have replaced my old Ledger Nano S for all I've needed.

Since you've already bought the Tangem, I recommend you start using it and see if it does all you need.
* They boast it creates a private key that doesn't leave the device. I recommend you try to set it up - if possible - in a way you can do a separate backup (eg on paper) of that private key. (And of course, keep that paper safe).
* I am unsure, but Tangem may not be HD wallet. If so, that's a minus if you plan to also spend coins, since (at least in theory) address reuse (same address uses to send and receive coins) is not as safe (and quantum proof) as getting new change address on every spend. Probably nothing to fear now, but still something to keep in mind.

After using it a little, you can make a decision if you need something more or something different. Meanwhile Black Friday may kick in with some promotions too Wink
