I generally tell new users to start out with Coinbase or Circle. Once people get used to buying, selling, and using Bitcoin I tell them to get a wallet they control like Copay. For advanced users, I generally recommend Mycelium combined with a Ledger Unplugged or a Ledger HW.1. For reviews of most of these, check out the review section on my website.
The best wallet for me is coins.ph because it secure your bitcoin and it need verificatiom or confirmation if you want to open it and also it doesn't have any paperworks like others.Blockchain is also kind of wallet that you can put your winning bitcoins in gambling sites and after you can transfer the bitcoin in coins.ph.
I guess you are a Filipino, due to your name and the bitcoin wallet you've chosen. Yes, Coins.ph wallet would be the best wallet but only for Filipino due to functionality. Coins.ph can be used for cashing out money thru bank transfer, load, game credits, western union etc,. But Coins.ph doesn't let us get into out private key and we can't sign a message on it. That means whenever the site goes down, then even our wallets and bitcoins will be gone too.
For me, the best wallet would be paper wallet which can secure our funds even offline. And let us access it thru different kinds of wallets such as blockchain(desktop) or Mycelium(Android) by the use of private key.

I have mycelium wallet and i look for my private key but i found it the same with my address is that correct? If thats not my private ley then where do I find the private key

I think it is more likely that web wallets are the most used since many bitcoin users don’t want to deal with installing their own wallet, then I will probably guess the next most popular will be wallets for mobile devices since they are everywhere now, and finally the wallets for desktop.
I think with a web wallet is enough, this is because my bitcoin balance is still small, many people assume that the most dangerous web wallet and easily stolen. Next day maybe I will use desktop wallet.

Maybe yes maybe no. Taking me as an example my first wallet was a web one. Because nobody learned me anything about cryptocurrencies and that was the more easy way to store my first satoshis from faucets. After that I tested a mobile wallet only to check if it was appropriate for my needs but I gave it up because I had the opportunity to 'pair' my web wallet with my smartphone so it is more handy for me to control only one wallet in two different machines. At last, when I signed in this forum and I learned some about wallet security and reliability i went with desktop solution and now I trust most of all my desktop electrum wallet because I own the private keys and nobody else. As always security is not near with ease. You choose and get pros and cons.

The opinion you have can be considered that web wallets were popular in times of mobile devices is not yet present to access the internet, but looking into bitcoin wallets this modern days for mobile is available to be downloaded by through free services at google. That's why i believed coins.ph and blockchain conquered deeper of it's biggest market thoughout the entire country's services using didtal currency exchanges , and gladly they are affiliated with banks here in the country for cash out from wallet to fiat cash money.

I think the most wallet that anyone who used are blockchain and coins.ph because it doesn't need any paperworks.In this wallet when you try to open it need confirmation or verification to avoid scam.

For anyone who hold less than 1 btc, I think it's better to use online/ website wallet. Because it's instant and don't need to worry about virus or loosing your device. About the security, it's all done with sms and google authenticator.
But if you are a traveler or mobile person that using bitcoin regularly, I would prefer to recommend mobile wallet.

And maybe someone want to know this information
Types of wallet :
1. Online bitcoin wallets. Wallets that can be accessed on the web from any internet connected device.
2. Bitcoin hardware wallets. Physical devices designed to secure bitcoins.
3. Software wallets. Wallet applications downloaded to your phone, computer or tablet.
4. Paper wallets. Bitcoin private keys printed from an offline computer.

Which is the most used? Any ideas? Desktop and Mobile.

Well I'd recommend blockchain.info for you because it can be used both in mobile and desktop, and it has a wide reputation of being the wallet of choice for everyone, beginners and experienced bitcoiners alike uses it a lot.

Blockchain.info unlike Coinbase allows you to retain control over your private keys, which means that your coins are never in counterparty danger. You don't need to trust anyone to keep honest as blockchain.info does not save your password on their servers anywhere.

But that also means that there will be no way to recover your password if you lose it alongside your email address. So make sure you take good care of that.

I vote for Coinbase as the most used wallet.
Its not a wallet its an exchange site a wallet gives you full access to your address including private keys. btw back on topic, Im using both desktop and mobile, when Im at home definitely Im using my desktop wallet and if I have important things to do outdoor I usually used my mobile wallet it depends on the situation. 

Coinbase is asking you for personal data and I don't agree with that. Blockchain should be the most used one, as it was the first result I could see back in 2013 when I heard about BTC for the first time and there are over 10 million wallets registered there if I remember that correctly. Web wallets like Blockchain or Coinbase should only be used for funds that you don't want to save but to use.

My personal favorite is Mycelium for mobile. The UI is pretty neat and I like the security of it. Also lots of helpful functionalities in it, I would give it a go if I were you.
