I have seen many conversations about hardware wallets, it always ends up IMHO as use what you are confortable with. If you are poor, then try to save money with Wallet of Satoshi or Blink. Good custodial wallet,s compatible with games such as Tetro Tiles where you can easily stack $0.1 per day. If you are middle-class, use whatever hardware wallet is available in your location. Any hardware wallet which is not connected to the Internet is good enough, the rest is marketing. If you are rich and a public person I would go with a third-party like Casa to help in case of kidnapping or physical attacks.

That being said, I personally use Seedsigner in stateless mode so the evil maid attack mentioned doesn't work. And although I am not entirely sure, I think not saving data on the SD card was the default setting as it always says we can remove the SD card at runtime. I guess NVK didn't really try it. All the fud also around ledger most of the time is just another marketing trick, as I never registered for their custodial service. It just asks by default. So bottom line, use any hardware wallet you are confortable with, someone will always argue something else but you will be most likely ok with any choice you made.
