I use a hardware wallet and I am very happy with it. It is malware proof most of the time (unless you hit thousand of transactions from a computer infected with keylogger which after such transactions can get your security card) but if you use it in Linux Mint it's perfect. I am talking about the Ledger hardware wallet.
If you want all the features of an online web wallet use electrum at your desktop or if you want to play on the go in gambling for example use only Mycellium or Breadwallet.
These are the best wallets for each category. See that there is no XAPO,COINBASE or BLOCKCHAIN.info wallets in my way of thinking.

I use only one wallet, and that is the official Android phone wallet. I use it because I have my phone with me pretty much everywhere I go and it is easy to use and the app is small. The computer one is taking too long to download and 60+ GB is too much for me and my internet is not so fast.
I was going to say the same thing, lol. Well, I think you are very true in that, 60 GB sounds impossible for me to download even in a year!!, so Official Android wallet "Bitcoin" seems to be the best for me and does the job right.

I myself use 3 different wallets. One is on my Android device, one on my desktop PC and one online.
The one i like the most is on my desktop, MultiBit. I like it because you can quicky generate new deposit adresses and keep track of your incomes and outcomes. I only use Blockchain for some payments, and on my mobile phone i have MyCelium wallet, which i use for mobile/QR code scanning payments.
What wallets do you use and which one do you prefer and why?

Same, I also have 3 different kinds of wallet.
First is a desktop wallet - I use electrum cause I dont have sufficient storage to download the whole blockchain.
Second is a web wallet - I use coins.ph. Well if you live in Philippines, This wallet is great for you cause you can convert your bitcoins to Philippine Peso
The third one is an android wallet named mycelium - Downloaded this cause I have read some good reviews about it and I don't havr any problems with it so far. This wallet also gives you a private key so the wallet is yours alone
I use paper wallets because I feel they are the most secure ones in case you don't lose them lol 
But besides that I also have an online wallet for daily use which is something I really need but it is more important to secure your wallet so even if it is online you can store your bitcoins there and be sure they won't get hacked

I currently hold most of my bicoins on blockchain.info, however my trezor should arrive in a couple of days, so I'll be using their wallet after that. I use mycelium on my phone as well.
I also use blockchain.info because when I forgot my coinbase wallet password, my friend told me to use blockchain. and it is good enough during this time. there are many features of it and the performance is good because it has blue colour. actually I forget how coinbase looks like and I have never used the other wallets so I cannot compare it with others well.
I also use the blockchain wallet because its an easy wallet can be good secured and is trusted, used by many people so it was a simple choice.
i am using bether wallet , mycelium wallet on my phone and electrum wallet on my desktop. i do not like those network blocks loading waiting for the noods to recive the last mined block to get my address balances update insted i like mycelium because only one host loads those files and all others just uses those network files all we have tp do is reload our balance tab
It is same here blockchain.info is in my use since the day one I entered in Bitcoin universe. I don't hold large amount even if I was having then too no need to replace it with other wallets. It is working well and I am satisfied like hundred of thousands other user with their services.

yes, i love the wallet of blockchain.info. I use the wallet blockchain since 2015 ago. to this day I still faithfully use the wallet of blockchain.info. because it is very comfortable and pleasant to be in use it.
blockchain.info would be the best wallet of choice for all us because it is very user friendly and good for newbie as they can navigate or explore the wallet easily and i think it is much secure than other bitcoin light wallets . i haven't tried to use blockchain.info because i am already using a wallet that's suitable for every thing i need .

I use Blockchain and Coinbase.
Why ? Because, Blockchain is webwallet a trusted and has a high-security.
And Coinbase because, no fee on the transaction and easy to use with a mobile phone.
But, Sometimes I also use xapo if there is no withdrawal options to blockchain.

I use Xapo most of the times, and i use it because there i don't need to select any fees etc and i'm not sure if they charge something or not and if they charge then maybe they decide it themselves which is why i never had any problems with my transactions.
I am using Blockchain. why? Because I think blockchain is a very simple wallet and have a complex in security. Blockchain using email when I login to blockchain, I must fill the password and fill the 2FA which can make blockchain is safety.
I agree with you, blockchain.info or coinbase.com is the best online wallet for me since they have both 2fa option.you can also try the bitcoin core if you don't want online wallet.

I always use xapo wallet cause it has no fees. Easy to use ,fast recieving and sending bitcoins.
All.in all xapo wallet is one complete package.

Most people here do mention always on having or using blockchain.info web wallet which i could say that its really a good one and somehow safe even though its an online wallet. Security features of blockchain is good for me already and somehow its really hard to hack. Hardware and pc wallets is the most secure for me regarding on storing huge amounts of bitcoins.
I like to use blockchain.info. Despite being an online wallet, it is a practical and relatively safe wallet. But it's not the only one I use, I also use the core wallet.
I do not have much to say about the electrum wallet, it seems to be a good one, but I need to research more about it.

I use offline wallet and Blockchain, because i think this are the most secured and safest wallets. The exchanger wallets don't secured enough to use them for the long run
i am now using my exchange bitcoin wallet beside my mycelium because i am doing trading in some amount bitcoin and so far, i think its safe wallet for me. for blockchain, i really don't like in new blockchain because i am still confusing to use, i think its because I have long time not logged in my account and now i am confusing when see the new of blockchain.
Right now i am using coins.ph wallet because it is fast and convenient everytime i made my transactions online and also i can use it in betting at gambling sites. I feel safer with this wallet due to its security of e-mail confirmation when i log in, i can load my mobile phone, pay bills, cash in and cash out my converted btc. It really gave me comfort all the time and its no hassle.
I am using coins.ph too but i just use it for bank withdrawals my main wallet to use right now is electrum it is easy to use than coins.ph.
Also the difference is there is no sign message in coins.ph you can not sign there.. that is why i do not use it because i can not sign a message there if you deal to someone they are asking for your old steak address so if you use coins.ph address you can not sign unlike on electrum..
