If i can recommend you some antivirus for android, try F-secure, ESET or Bitdefender.

I noticed something in the way some of these antiviruses work.Those that use the cloud such as Bitdefender, there is a sort of latency in detection.When u download a file,it will not be detected.Once you try to install the apk it detects the malicious file.

Products like Eset and F-Secure on the other side,use downloaded definitions and cloud.Once you download a malicious file, a bit like on Pc, you get an alert instantly.But they will use more memory,space and resources on your phone.F-Secure is very well designed, from the GUI to the notifications,has a secure browser and a mode specially for internet banking.But it can take up to 90mbs on your device.

Emsisoft is same as Bitdefender, but cost twice less.If you have time,try them.;)
Thank you buddy, fully agree on that :)

Zemana from this giveaway or TrustGo free? Which is better?
The real problem is that hardly you can test Android AVs as you would do on Windows using a VM, and this requires you have just to trust independent lab tests.
Infection vectors on Android are different from Windows because usually, you got infected by installing a malicious app and you can avoid that, simply using well known and trusted apps downloaded from the official store, or not using third-party applications.

I've no experience with TrustGo AV. The AV-Comparatives report of 2017 (post #15 here) shows a 99.6% result of TrustGo.
However, it's not sufficient in my opinion to make a decision just on that basis. If not Zemana, you can go with other free "well-known" AVs that have a high detection rate in that report - eg. Avast or Bitdefender.
