Today i just researched about the wallets for Bitcoin, I thought it will be usefull for new comers who don't know much about the wallets ,  that's why posting here . There are a few kinds of wallets out there . It is prudent to know these classes with the goal that you generally pick one that suits you. Those are-

SHORTLISTED:

Dekstop Wallet (OS Apllication):
These wallets are mainly a software or application which run on specific application. They are intended to be downloaded and utilized on PCs . They are anything but difficult to access and utilize notwithstanding when the PC isn't associated with the web.  They are accessible for various working frameworks – Windows, Mac OS and Ubuntu. Armory is the most suggested work area wallet, particularly because of its security highlights. Others are Multibit, mSIGNA etc.

   MultiBit: https://multibit.org/
   mSigna : https://ciphrex.com
You obviously didn't research very well... Roll Eyes

- The website you've listed for Armory is the wrong one... You're directing users to and old/outdated website carrying an old/outdated version of the wallet. The NEW website is: https://btcarmory.com/

- Armory is a wallet for "expert"/experience Bitcoin users. It requires a Bitcoin Core Full Node and can be very complicated/problematic to get running correctly. Recommending it to "new comers who don't know much about the wallets" is a "Bad Idea"™. Also, saying it is the "most suggested" wallet is probably wrong. I'd guess that Electrum would probably be the most recommended wallet.

- MultitBit is old, outdated, full of bugs and is NO LONGER SUPPORTED/DEVELOPED (was dropped in July 2017) - https://multibit.org/blog/2017/07/26/multibit-shutdown.html

Recommending this to new users is BAD! Undecided

- mSigna: really? for new users? Huh Just no.


In my opinion, Bitcoin Core (for a full node) or Electrum (for lightweight wallet).
