LedgerLedger sells the Nano S Plus as its $59 entry model, a cable-powered signer with no battery to charge and no Bluetooth to pair. It connects to computers and Android phones, while its small two-button screen turns a long address or a smart-contract approval into slow, screen-by-screen reading.

Ledger Nano S Plus is a self-custody hardware wallet from Ledger built for users who want offline key storage without paying for Bluetooth or a touchscreen. It pairs a compact two-button design with a monochrome OLED screen and supports assets such as Bitcoin, Ethereum, and Solana through Ledger’s software and compatible third-party wallets.
Introduced in 2022, the Nano S Plus sits in Ledger’s lineup as the simpler cable-connected option. It uses a Secure Element chip, Ledger OS, and on-device confirmation to keep signing local to the device, while USB-C makes it a hardware wallet for tethered desktop and Android use.
Ledger Nano S Plus is best suited to users who want broad asset coverage and a familiar Ledger setup without wireless features. Its small screen and two-button navigation are slower than newer touch models. Some assets or advanced workflows across Ethereum, Arbitrum, Polygon, and Optimism still rely on third-party wallet integrations. For first-time wallet users, protecting the recovery backup remains part of setup even though the device keeps signing keys offline.
