For my own collection, I still like using plastic sheets and an album for cards under $10 because they display well and it makes it easy to flip through the pages quickly. For star cards, I would use an old school hard plastic plaque for older cards and those magnetic ones for newer ones. (Plastic sheets do not give me 100% confidence in keeping the cards protected).
Also, Card Saver I's (pre-1957) and Card Saver II's (modern size) can work quite well if you want to keep your collection efficient and "light". The only thing about Card Savers is that it takes a bit of practice getting cards in and and out without putting pressure on the cards' edges and corners. In this case, I do find it easier to use top loaders/penny sleeves in terms of ease.
