Ledger has unveiled its latest hardware wallet, the Ledger Flex, at the Bitcoin 2024 convention. This new device boasts a secure E Ink touchscreen and NFC connectivity, designed to enhance usability without compromising security.
Building on Ledger’s reputation for secure hardware, the Ledger Flex comes in a sleek black and steel design, with a special Ledger Flex BTC Edition also available. Priced at $249, the Flex is positioned between Ledger’s Nano series and the $399 Ledger Stax.
The wallet’s 2.8-inch E Ink touchscreen offers clear visibility for approving transactions and logins, with exceptional battery life lasting weeks or even months on a single charge. This follows the earlier release of the Ledger Stax, known for its curved E Ink display.
