If you want an easy to use offline wallet I'd recommend Electrum, but there are many more options which might be even better. You're going to get many different answers here ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif) Also, have a look here to help you with your choice: https://bitcoin.org/en/choose-your-wallet

electrum AND MultiBit are pretty good lightweight wallets you can use . online wallets cannot be trusted as there might be a hack somewhere down the line and all coins will vanish ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif) .

It depends on what you're looking for. If you're looking to store a lot of coins safely then offline hardware wallets like Trezor and paper wallets are the best. If you want quick access to smaller amounts and spend them out and about then you have phone wallets. My fave is Mycelium.

Coinbase and xapo wallet will give you facility to send and receive bitcoin without fee and confirmation between users. But if you are talking about large sum of money than you better use offline wallet or paper wallet for better security.

Most Bitcoin wallets happen to all be connected with each other in the sense that there's strong similarities. I don't have a genuine favorite in terms of wallets. The one I use connects with my actual regular fiat bank so I just won't mention that one at all but it's really good.

for offline i will choose electrum or multibit , and for online i use blockchain.info about fee we can set the fee as what we want but with some risk if you send large amount of bitcoin but with little fee.

I vote hardware wallets as well, I have used and like both the Trezor and the Ledger Nano (the latter is cheap). Both are pretty easy to use. The main advantage of hardware wallets is safety.I have tiny amounts (to buy a coffee if I can find a coffee shop who will take BTC) on my cellphone and a web wallet (both blockchain.info) for convenience, I do not recommend keeping much in either.

In case you would look for an alternative in the future, you could use blockchain.info wallet if your trying to store small amounts and use it daily (their free,0.0001 fee) but if your looking for storing large amounts then I would advise Trezor (not free but make it very safe and AFAIK it's unhackable).

Try Armory it has better security than that one. By the way, you can pay a transaction with no fee but it will be not accepted by the network and it will be reverted. If you want a small fee, I suggest you to pay for the minimum fee which is 0.0001 BTC.

I would invest in a Trezor hardware wallet for the every day transactions and I will store the biggest portion of my bitcoins in cold storage. I do not trust online wallets or storing any large amounts of bitcoins on exchanges. If you go this route, you will have a better chance to secure your wealth.
