Ledger has introduced the Ledger Flex, a new mid-range hardware wallet designed to offer enhanced security, at a $249 price point.
What's the scoop?
- The Ledger Flex features a 2.8-inch E-Ink touchscreen, NFC capabilities, and a USB-C port.
- The new wallet is compatible with mobile and desktop devices and supports two-factor authentication (2FA) for logging into platforms like Coinbase or Google without inputting a password.
- At $249, the Ledger Flex is priced between the Ledger Nano X ($149) and the premium Ledger Stax ($399), while the more basic Ledger Nano S Plus remains available for $79.
Bankless take:
Ledger just raised its top-end offering, Ledger Stax, from $279 to $399, so what makes the Ledger Flex interesting is that it offers a similar, slick UX with its large touchscreen interface, but at almost half of the price of the Ledger Stax. It will likely become popular with crypto users who prefer a more phone-like feeling compared to the USB-like designs of the original Ledger wallets.
