For me personally..

Android - Dr. Web Security Space, AhnV3, Bullguard and Norton are my favorites for a variety of reasons. Currently I have a 3 year unused Dr. Web SS license I am using for Mobile on 5 devices and it's very nice..

Win10 - Paid: G Data, Bullguard, Emsisoft I find the most acceptable. Free: FortiClient

In our household we use ESET on (2) Android devices, (1) iPad, and Norton on our third Android (all Free).

On Windows 10, Mrs Cats uses EMSISOFT Antimalware, & I Kaspersky I.S.,
and a third Windows 10 is fortified with AVAST! Free.


@hamo, for the share..
Thanks! :D

Avast, Bitdefender, ESET, Emsisoft, F-Secure, Fortinet, G-Data, Kaspersky Lab, Malwarebytes, Microsoft, Sophos, Symantec, Surfright (now Sophos?), and Zemana.

Those are the vendors I would mainly trust personally.

If I had to narrow down the list: ESET, Emsisoft, Kaspersky Lab, Microsoft and Symantec.

Those are the vendors I would mainly trust and would consider using services from personally.

Somebody has experience with Vipre? It keeps getting top certifications on all testing sites... Never heard of such mysterious thing as Vipre users!

There are many Android Security apps that use other well known AV engines. Several use Bit defender, for instance.
AV Comparatives, another lab, I think has that kind of information.

As for me, Sophos Mobile Security gets the job done. They are the only one I know, still truly free, and NO Ads! Plus, I think the most features of any of them.
