Works like a pro. The buzzkill tho is how Windows browsers are oddly not able to skip the “What security key do you want to use” nonsense, forcing the user to TAB space and all sorts of friction in order to land on the one that lets me “Touch my security key”- completely defeats the attraction to go FIDO— something designed to reduce friction, actuallly causes MORE.

This device is great for
This device is great for use cases where you don't need to unplug it very often. It stays plugged into a USB C port VERY firmly and can be a pain to remove, especially in tight spots. Don't get this model if you need to frequently move it between devices. Do get this one if you want a device that'll always be plugged into a laptop as it is even smaller than the Logitech...

I have difficulty time with the keys they don’t always work. Maybe, I’m doing something wrong. Or maybe defective. It says I have the wrong credentials. I’m still trying to figure it out but if I see that the keys still don’t work I will edit my comment. But for now I’m giving 4 stars. Thanks so much

All in all a mixed
All in all a mixed bag. I expected better 1password integration. Most financial institutions don’t support security keys. I feel like I bought security key at leadt a few years before they become mainstream- it the possibility that they are a passing fad, that will soon be replaced by the next purported great thing- save your money.

Response from Staples :
Thank you for your feedback! Please note that it's not Yubico that implements support for security keys in a service environment, this implementation has to come from the service provider itself. So if you have any financial institutions you would like to accept security keys, we kindly recommend that you reach out to them with your request.
If you haven't already, please see our 'Works With YubiKey Catalog' here for some financial services that are supporting YubiKeys:

This unit works well but
This unit works well but be warned it is tiny any can take a bit of messing to plug it in. One thing would have been helpful when adding it to an account like google. If you have other forms of 2FA such as phone message, tablet etc, you may have to remove the other forms of 2FA before it shows you the key to be added.
