Coinbase, blockchain.info are the 2 I use.

I think OP is looking for a wallet where he controls his private keys. ranochigo's suggestions are good. I really like Mycelium.

Bitcoin Core can't run on Android due to the space constrains.
I would go for Bitcoin Wallet or Mycelium.
Bitcoin Wallet does not use change addresses or use any seed and hence have privacy concerns regarding it(address reuse)[1] AFAIK. However, it allows users to connect to a trusted node and obtain information from it.

Mycelium have various features, importing private keys, BIP32 seeds etc. It sends the change to a new address and hence doesn't allow address reuse. You can also use it on multiple computers with apps that have the same BIP32 derivation path[2]. Some of it's features include cold storage spending. However, it does not allow users to select a node and the client automatically connects to their node. This introduces the risk of sybil attack and they can potentially fake information(central validation).
