I have been trying some of the wallets listed here since the last time i posted in this thread. There has been some nice surprises with some wallets. I have never tried using blockchain.info as a wallet, but I have recently and I quite like it.

Desktop: Bitcoin Core - I actually run this on a VPS due to the blockchain size, but I move coins out as soon as they get in. Phone: Bitdash Wallet for Android - because we eat our own dog food.

I use coinbase to store my btx fund in its vault ( cold Storage ). I feel coinbase vault is secure to store your bitcoins. Because, to withdraw it requires to verify the withdrawl request from 2 mail ids.
What if you lose access to the emails?

I use the core Satoshi client on most of my machines. Why? Familiarity, mostly. Five years without issue, and I know how to secure them. I've used other clients, and I like them, but I still come back to the original.
And I've never trusted online wallets.

Trezor for savings and mining proceeds. Breadwallet for spending smaller amounts.
I used Bitcoin Core before getting the Trezor.

Electrum is the best
I was considering Electrum because I like the idea of HD wallets, but I don't like that i wouldn't have the blockchain locally. Ive seen Armory uses HD too but does it differently with another method. I've got no idea how to make the master public key show up to in Armory share it tho.

I also really like the idea of HD wallets, but doing a little research now has me a little worried: there may be some weaknesses in HD wallets like, if someone has a private key (P) and a public key (K), where P is a subkey of K, then they can work out the private key to K. Meaning that sharing public keys can actually be dangerous. I wonder if there are ways around this or if Armory has worked a solution out for this. Either way, I do love the idea of HD wallets.

What are the advantages of using a hierarchical deterministic wallet ?

I'm using blockchain. Because i don't do that much transactions. I just keep fund low like 50-60 USD max at a time. So its more easy and convenient for me than any other bitcoin clients.

I use Blockchain because moving a low sums, is fast, easy way to create account, no need to sync, but if I had too much could keep a client PC or on paper wallet.

I hate Bitcoin Core's slow as hell reindex function. I will change it to Multibit and Armory.

I'm using Electrum, because it small and fast, and Bitcoin Core (on SSD), it seems more compatible with bitcoin protocol.
