What device do you prefer using though? It would help stating what device and what operating system you're using.

Anyway, here's my personal picks:

Windows and OSX: Electrum[1]
Android: Copay[2]
iOS: BRD(Bread Wallet)[3]

Some will tell you the best wallet is Coinbase, some will say it's Electrum and some will say it's Trezor. As we all have different needs it's all about what do you really needs. There are different types of wallets

- Web based wallet : Coinbase,com, Bloakchain.com etc
- Software wallet: Electrum, Armory,...
- Hardware wallet, Trezor, Ledger,...

Most of the time beginners start with a web wallet, but if you want to be a real Bitcoiner you need to use a software and if you want to be a hardcore Bitcoiner you need to use a hardware wallet

If you are looking for the best security, I suggest investing in a Trezor/Ledger nano S, you'll sleep much better knowing that your funds are safe. (Usability is not compromised, they are very easy to use)

I would recommend him TREZOR since its developers are doing a great job. It doesn't support as many altcoins as Ledger but at least it provides easy to use and always working wallet interface. A few weeks ago, I wrote a list of hardware wallets which you might find useful. I would not recommend buying a hardware wallet if the investment is lower than a value of such wallet. As Omega wrote, Electrum is a good choice for beginners, especially because user doesn't even have to download any additional data. @MathGame you should check out my Electrum tutorial for beginners.

Electrum is what you're looking for. It's only secure/safe as long as your computer is not infected.

If you are looking for the best security, I suggest investing in a Trezor/Ledger nano S, you'll sleep much better knowing that your funds are safe. (Usability is not compromised, they are very easy to use)

I just want to ask for the best bitcoin wallet for the beginners. I mean the bitcoin wallet that is user-friendly, easy to use and also very secure because I don't want to risk my coins just because of simplicity.
