02.Bitcoin Core   https://bitcoin.org/en/wallets/desktop/windows/bitcoincore (https://bitcoin.org/en/wallets/desktop/windows/bitcoincore)

A comment about Bitcoin Core: while it is the original bitcoin wallet, today it is not as popular as the others and is probably not suitable for beginners. The reason is that it consumes a lot of resources. I used it until 2016, when the size of the bitcoin blockchain became close to 100GB. It requires a lot of disk space and the disk better be SSD, because otherwise syncing would be very slow. Now it is mainly for enthusiasts, for beginners it is better to use a lightweight client, such as Electrum.

Would it be an idea to update the list for multi-coin wallets like Exodus too?

Just a thought.

I remember when it was a lot smaller and syncing was still a real pain.

You should add well-known wallet and wallet that i still use as of now for other altcoin and bitcoin..
electrum is the best and safe wallet that i experience that you can use segwit address and you can pay lesser fee than the legacy wallet..
Also add coinomi for mobile i use this wallet for receiving ethereum and zcash that i mine from flypool and as of now i am holding large amount of zcash and transferring little amount and its still working fine to me so i think better to add this as in your listed mobile wallet above like airbitz i don't trust this site its new to me and the other  wallet like jaxx i heard a lots of issue about this wallet.. so i recommend to add this 2 as well known and trusted wallet. .

I agree that it should be mentioned, but with a warning - "not beginner friendly" or something.

Earlier versions, back in 2011 or a bit later (I do not remember exactly) were terribly slow, but then a newer version was released (changed algorithms for working with the database or something) that was much better. At present the main problem with Bitcoin Core is the sheer size of the blockchain.

I have not yet decided which wallet I should choose. I want to use it on my mobile phone at the same time. also a wallet that will not bother with security. I am waiting for veterans' advice.
