I've had yubikeys, as well as Feitian [1], and Trustkey [2] (linked below, sorry for the amazon). They all seem to work equivalently.

I don't think NFC is a security concern, so I wouldn't go out of my way to avoid it, even if it's a feature you don't expect to use.

I currently have three tokens linked to all my accounts -- one of each of the above brands.
