Definitely Blockchain.info. The importance of 2FA and of being extremely wary of phishing attacks can't be stressed enough though.

I prefer Bitcoin Core despite having to download the entire blockchain. It's the official wallet and therefore will be the most true to spec when new changes occur. With downloading the blockchain, I do my part as a node to help others to keep their transactions accurate. I also have Electrum and I recommend other people use that since it's a quick setup without the huge download.

Blockchain.info is better than coinbase, as you have the private keys in your blockchain.info wallet but not in coinbase. BTW, you should enable 2FA for both your wallets for better security.

Unfortunately, I don't think any wallet has done translation for the Filipino language AFAIK.

You can use a thin client like Multibit or Electrum, so that you won't need to download the whole 20+ GB blockchain files. Just download the latest version from the official site, and you can get your wallet ready within a minute or two.

For online wallets (which I wouldn't personally recommend for large amounts of BTC):
I have nothing against Blockchain, they have a very good reputation, but everyone should realize that their two factor authentication is just about useless for protecting against malware (but it can help against phishing).
Younger (but less proven) online services which offer per-transaction multifactor authentication such as GreenAddress.it and BitGo.com offer very good (not perfect) protection against malware. If malware is a concern to you (it probably should be), you might want to consider one of these for your online wallet needs....
Or just go with a desktop wallet - I like Electrum and Armory for their easy one-time paper backups (and MultiBit HD is also nearing release).

Mycelium PINs do not offer a lot of security, see here for more details. Some PIN schemes do offer decent security, for example GreenAddress PINs are quite secure ( see here for more details).

I use Electrum
What is your best bitcoin wallet?
Electrum is good, but trezor better ;-) Is it true? Trezor is a hardware wallet that you can use safely and easily on a compromised computer. In that sense, no wallet can compete with it.

Sorry about the noobish question, but what can one do with the coin control features?
With coin control, you can specify which transaction outputs you want to spend and you can specify the change address as well.

Bitcoin Core. But only after the 30+GB blockchain is up to date. On a related note, I'm currently working on a wallet for Android devices which can generate keys offline. Hoping to have it released soon. Thats the annoyance of controlling it yourself. Download sizes! I use electrum!

I'm using multibit and I like it, no more long blockchain downloads because I have slow internet. I have no problem so far using it.

Bitcoin Core for sure. It is the only wallet you don't need to trust a third party.
