Don't listen to @Onions, some hardware wallets are absolutely great. He has very high standards in requiring an airgapped signing device, but those make the process of spending the bitcoin that you already have much more complicated than it should be. I'd never suggest one for a newb. Advanced users only.

I've tried many hardware wallets and signing devices. Many are airgapped too. Here's what I'd suggest for a "Relative Newb":

Since Jade's UX leaves a lot to be desired it's not great for total newbs... I'd go with a Keystone for that. But Coldcard has soooo many great little security checks that it's hard not to want to keep your coins there once you are more experienced.

It should also go without saying that you will want to back up your seed phrase on metal no matter which option you go with. -And that any passwords you try to remember are for Wallets only, never for the seedphrase itself (25th word). -Those were one of the most horrible ideas in the history of cryptography.
