Google has simplified its lineup of Titan hardware security keys, dropping Bluetooth options in favor of NFC to connect to phones. There are now just two models, one with USB-A and another with USB-C for connecting to computers. Titan keys offer a vastly more secure way to sign in to online services compared to passwords and SMS codes. They also protect against phishing.

Better ways

I did buy the original Titan kit although it took forever it felt for Google to get the NFC piece working. The Bluetooth piece worked but is clunky to use.

I moved over to Yubikey a while ago to get USB C and NFC together on a key. Google is kind of late for this change.
