New Users, what are your favorite apps so far?

So far I really like Dolphin for a browser. It's a lot more like the browsers I use on my laptops then either Chrome or Firefox although I do use Firefox on my laptops and it works great there but looks nothing like or doesn't work like it does on a tablet.
I also like X-plore File Manager. Seems to have a lot of functionality and it's fairly easy to use. Let's me create folders and stuff which is what I was looking for.
Of course Piston is the entire reason I came over to Android in the first place so I can use it with my ELM 327 OBD II Bluetooth adapter to read and clear codes on my car. I'm sure I'll find a few other apps that I really like as I explore more and learn more about Android but so far this is what I've found. So, what are some apps that you guys really like, especially some of the new folks, that's made moving from a laptop or desktop over to a tablet more palatable?
 
Chrome is nice for starting on my phone and then moving to my pc but it really is not reliable. And for fun and games if you have a ps3 controller and a computer you can hook up your controller to your phone and use it with emulators, thats if you are rooted. The app costs a little money but is worth the buy. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.dancingpixelstudios.sixaxiscontroller If you dont like the keyboard that came with your phone or want more style there is the go keyboardhttps://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.jb.emoji.gokeyboard they have several themes and colors to choose from that will suit anyones needs.
