I have used nitrokeys and FST-01, the FST-01 beats the nitrokey in speed and in freedom, i currently use two of them, one with rsa 4096 and one with 25519 (for decryption you need libgcrypt 1.7). The nitrokey beats the FST-01 in the case, it's by default more weareable without need to make your own one.

It seems there is a big plus when you use a board made by the person who makes gnuk which is the same person who makes the smartcard gnupg code.

Nitrokey Start uses GNUK 1.0 firmware and its hardware is very similar to FST-01. The microprocessor should be identical so that its performance should be identical too. This applies to Nitrokey Start only, the other models differ.
