I love Bitcoin but sometimes I don't like when things getting more complicated, i really want to set up a full node but i don't want to spend hours to do that.
It depends on the speed of the Internet in the place where you download.
It's not a wallet that requires all that time but its Blockchain "187 GB".
As a beginner, you can SPV wallets "electrum or greenaddress" less complex and faster.
Or
Enabling pruning: delete old Blocks use "/bitcoind --prune=550" "<=4Gb"
