YubiKey 5C Technical specifications

Review: Essential security upgrade – simple and incredibly secure - The Yubico YubiKey 5C NFC is one of the best purchases I’ve made for online security. Setup was straightforward, and once configured, it adds a serious extra layer of protection to accounts. I love that it supports both USB-C and NFC, so I can use it with my laptop and just tap it against my phone when needed. It works seamlessly with major services and gives real peace of mind knowing my accounts are protected by hardware-based two-factor authentication. The fact that this pack includes two keys is brilliant — one to use daily and one as a backup stored safely. The build quality feels solid and durable, not flimsy at all. If you take online security seriously, this is a worthwhile investment. Reliable, easy to use, and far more secure than relying on text message codes alone.
Review: Recommended - I have been after a security key for a while and I'm sure glad I went for this one. Easy to set up and use and compatible and connectivity across windows device and android phone is a big win for me also the ability to have a back up key made and stored. Quality feels strong and robust and there are plenty of covers available

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Really secure device highly recommend
*by A***Y on 5 November 2025*

The YubiKey 5 NFC is top-tier in its class: excellent security, broad compatibility, and great flexibility in connectivity. If you care seriously about protecting your accounts, it’s a very worthwhile investment. The trade-offs — cost, need for backup key(s), setup effort — are real but manageable, and in my view acceptable for the level of protection you gain.
