I am sticking to the original Bitcoin Core wallet.
I don't see anything wrong with it so I didn't look for anything else.

A few things that can wrong with it are: your computer can be compromised (whether from the internet or someone you know) or your computer can crash and you haven't saved your wallet recently (and had money sent to new addresses that weren't yet saved in your old wallet.dat).
Oh, don't worry about it.
I have backups of the wallet.dat on 2 locations.
So even if my PC crashes and it's lost, I can recover my wallets
I use blockchain.info for smaller transactions during the days and Electrum for holding more long term never had any problems, so if something is not broke then don't try fix it.
Why do you choose blockchain for smaller transaction? Does it can't send too much of bitcoin or did it take too long for the confirmation? And you choose electrum just for saving not for sending? I guess both of them is the same way for saving
blockchain.info for spending 
but i heard that breadwallet is good too.
OP: choosecase "case" is not available yet!

Why you use blockchain for spending? Did it faster to find blocks? I guess every wallet have the same purpose that is for spending or saving? So whats the different among them?

I chose Electrum because that's the one I have been using from a long time, I have also used Multibit but I find Electrum to be more user friendly.
I have a question on wallets and I am going to ask here instead of opening a new thread. I have never used Mobile wallets, never had any use for them but nowadays I find myself sometimes away from my PC and a need to send BTC and I was thinking of installing one and if someone has any suggestions on which one should I use, kindly let me know.
I need it somewhat like electrum, meaning I don't want to download the whole blockchain and I need it to have the ability to import/export private keys.
PS: My phone has Android OS.

Mycelium. Hands down best.
Thanks.
Yep, original works wonders. Why risk it with anything else if Bitcoin-Qt works just fine? I understand others may appreciate the functionality of other wallets, but for those who don't Bitcoin-Qt is and will probably always be the safest option.
Bitcoin-QT isn't safer than holding money on a safely made paper wallet.

I used to use bitcoin core but it is way too clunky now. Especially with the 40GB blockchain. Now I just use blockchain.info.
It is quick and easy and accessible everywhere.
Although I haven't really explored some other wallets anyway, so I can't really talk.

I agree that Bitcoin Core is quite sluggish, but it is probably one of the better options regarding to storing your coins on pc.
I really hope you dont store all your coins online as the risk of losing your coins is quite high with online storage.

Looks like there's a new hardware Bitcoin wallet in town:
http://choosecase.com/
Not sure I'm feeling the pricetag though.

Actually I looked up everything there is to look up about Case, and I really like it. I preordered one. It is almost a category on its own, being more secure than a trezor or maybe even cold storage, but easier to spend from than an iOS wallet.
And you can also link it to your bank account so you can buy more bitcoin right in your wallet when you need to.
Pretty sweet if you ask me.
