A growing coalition of users is expressing discontent with the Ledger Nano X, citing numerous technical glitches just hours after purchase. With complaints ranging from firmware update problems to battery failures, recent feedback shows widespread frustration that could threaten the wallet's reputation in the crypto community.
Upon acquiring the Ledger Nano X, one buyer faced a barrage of technical issues right away. An arduous firmware update process led to three separate updates, with each necessitating a reinstallation of all apps. As one user lamented, "I received a stream of 'device disconnected' messages while trying to follow the update process β not exactly a user-friendly situation."
Adding to the complaints, another echoed a sentiment heard in the community: "Seems like you just have a battery problem. The updates probably because you got an old stock device?" Users were quick to point to their own experiences, suggesting improved alternatives, like the Flex wallet, which allows direct updates and claimed to outperform the Nano X.
Battery performance has become a major grievance for many. One frustrated user shared that their Ledger's battery discharges in just seconds and frequently fails during charging, producing an alarming error 7.
Even attempts at following troubleshooting steps have resulted in disillusionment. Community discussions indicate users have been grappling with these battery issues for over a year, often leading to returns and exchanges. Another comment reiterated this concern: "Did you let the battery drain to 0% then charge it overnight? I did this with mine. Had to do it a couple of times. Now the battery works great."
This growing trend splits the user base, with some defending the Nano X's security features while others vehemently criticize its reliability for on-the-go usage.
A mix of negative and positive feedback currently fills discussion threads:
Negative feedback dominates, focusing on technical flaws and disappointing customer experiences.
However, some users assert that updates are necessary for enhanced security, despite being tedious.
A push for more reliable alternatives, such as the Flex wallet, is gaining traction.
As more users lend their voices to this growing consensus, the impact on Ledgerβs reputation could prompt a re-evaluation of their customer service strategy. One user succinctly captured the community's concerns: "If I can't trust my wallet with my money, what's the point?"
