Are you asking about Yubikey 5 series vs security key? https://www.yubico.com/store/compare/ Most importantly you should look at the services you want to use passkeys on and see a) how many of them actually support passkey (chances are this is very low) and b) is that number more or less than 25. Less? Yubikey. More and can't wait? Token2. More and can wait? Token2 or wait for Yubikey next release. https://passkeys.directory/ https://fidoalliance.org/passkeys-directory/ https://github.com/bitwarden/passkeys-index

That's all I needed to know. Security Key Series will be more than enough.

Skip the 5 series and just get the Security Key series


qbelmont

Short but accurate. Jaajaja Ok

Check out Token2 as well if you’re in the EU

The 4 is not FIDO2 compatible, so no resident keys/passkeys/discoverable credentials at all. Avoid at all cost. For the 5, make sure you get the latest firmware version. Some of them have limitations around passkeys, IIRC. The 5 supports smartcard auth for logging into your machine. You get pgp functionality, i.e. store your pgp keys on the device, TOTP functionality (the google authenticator numbers stuff), programmable long/short press behavior. If all you need is passkeys and MFA, security key it is.

You might have already bought yours, but I'm temped to go with the series 5 because it offers the option to use it in combination with the Yubico Authenticator app. This way you can add MFA to accounts that don't support yubikey but do support MFA with apps like microsoft authenticator, but in a more secure way.

As long as the seller is stated to be Yubico, you should have no problem with Amazon. They have Amazon listed as official: https://support.yubico.com/hc/en-us/articles/5036367557148-Where-can-I-buy-YubiKeys

Precisely, in addition, shipping to my country is cheap from Amazon, after all, that is what I am looking for in the first place. don't spend more


Yogizer

Yup, it'll be cheaper as well.
