Heard trezor or nano are the best.
There are some phone apps that support altcoins the above wallets do not yet list.

iOS is hard to crack (having an alphanumeric password and the latest update). Stay away from jailbreak.
Try BRD wallet (breadapp.com). Write your seed password and keep it safe. That seed keeps BTC, BCH and ETH information.
I've been using Copay for years. Have multi-sig among many other features. But lately I noticed they're adding features, changing the UI and not focusing on stability. That's why I recommend BRD instead. Give it a try.

I bought a nano ledge and then never used it because I sold all my cryptos one day before it arrived.
So I have experience with it sitting in my dresser drawer, does that count?

I use the ledger nano, it's pretty great. Easy to use and I feel a lot better about having crypto and Windows in the same sentence.

From their website, it's the only safe place to buy it from.

I have a trezor but you need to download the trezor bridge app on every PC you use just so you can enter the security pin. With the ledger nano you just go MEW on any PC without having to downloaded any software. It's convenient if you have your hardware wallet on you if you can instantly send money without having to download on someone else's pc.
With the ledger nano it is easy to take it apart and inspect it to see the inside for physical tampering. With trezor this is practically impossible unless you get a mini saw to cut around the edges. With the ledger you only need a razor or a sharp small knife.
Another problem is that the trezor hardware display. It will show the address you are sending to but doesn't recognize most tokens and refers to them as "unknown tokens". This isn't the case with the ledger nano as long as you have the most current firmware installed.
They are both good but I think the ledger is better and cheaper now.

Looks like everyone really answered the question for you. I personally use a Ledger Nano S. When my portfolio was over 1k I knew I had to get a hardware wallet. That's mandatory.

I prefer the Ledger over the Trezor. My Trezor would not update to the latest firmware so I transferred the balances over to the Ledger.
I also have the Bitcoin.com phone wallet. It seems pretty good although I haven't used it much at all.
Bitcoin.com is also in the process of making their own hardware wallet.

I posted in the Lounge, just tried to start the ledger nano S but I can't even get the firmware because it won't let me delete (preloaded, why?) apps that are on there in order to have enough room to load the new ware. Seems juvenile in planning.

They sent me another one. Do you think anyone can use the first one, maybe it was an OS thing that a different operator might be able to?

Ledger nano s matte black is 50% off at ledger website until 26th if anyone was waiting for a price drop.
