What you really need is an air gapped or cold storage and you can achieve this in many ways. I found that one of the best ways to do it is grabbing an old phone and following this guide.
TLDR: install the software wallet and never connect the phone to the internet again and use QR codes to sign transactions using the camera. Practical, cheap, truly air gapped and doesn’t attract attention like a hardware wallet.

If the air-gapped phone is stolen, is guessing the PIN to unlock the phone the only thing stopping the thief from spending the victim’s money at that point?
