1. Welcome & Key Concepts

What is Trezor Suite?

Trezor Suite® is the official desktop and web application for managing hardware wallets made by SatoshiLabs. It provides account overviews, transaction history, portfolio values, and secure firmware updates. This presentation covers initial setup, safety best practices, and where to get official support.

Why use a hardware wallet?

Hardware wallets keep private keys offline, making them one of the safest options to store cryptocurrency and NFTs. Pairing the Trezor device with Trezor Suite adds a modern interface and easier transaction signing.

2. Getting Started — Step-by-step

Step 1: Acquire & Inspect

Buy from official sources

Purchase only from official retailers or the manufacturer to avoid tampered devices. Check tamper-evident packaging and serial numbers.

Step 2: Connect & Initialize

Install Trezor Suite

Open Trezor Suite (desktop or web), connect your device by USB, and follow the on-screen initialization: create a new wallet, write down the recovery seed, and set a PIN.

Step 3: Secure Your Seed

Seed storage best practices

Write the recovery seed on the provided card or use a steel backup. Store in a safe, offline location. Never share the seed or enter it on a website or phone.

Step 4: Use & Update

Keep firmware and Suite updated

Always use official firmware updates via Trezor Suite. Validate updates through the Suite UI and avoid third-party firmware files.

3. Security Checklist

  • ✅ Buy device from an official source.
  • ✅ Never disclose your recovery seed.
  • ✅ Use a strong device PIN.
  • ✅ Enable passphrase only if you understand its implications.
  • ✅ Verify addresses on the device screen before signing.
  • ✅ Keep firmware & Suite up-to-date.

4. Troubleshooting & Help

Common issues

Connection problems, outdated firmware, or lost seed — each has an official recovery path. For lost seed, funds cannot be recovered without the seed or passphrase; contact official support for guidance but know the limits.

When to contact support

If your device behaves unexpectedly or packaging appears tampered, reach out via the official support link above. Avoid community advice that suggests exposing your seed.
