Top 10 BEST Android Apps 2012

A smart phone won’t get you too far without at least a few great apps, and Android’s no exception. As you customize your new phone to your liking, here are 25 of the best Android apps to get you started.
All of them are free, but several have premium versions if you’re willing to pay. Get them directly through your phone or download them remotely over the Web from the Google Play Store.
I first created my Must-Have Android App list nearly a year ago in response to the overwhelming options in the Android Market. Where we used to suffer from scarcity, now we are burdened by the tyranny of choice. A lot has changed in the last year, and some one-time essentials have been replaced by much better options. If you just got an Android phone and want to know the first 10 apps you should download, this story is for you.
Before we get to the top 10, I want to mention a few of my favorite apps that didn’t quite make the list. The most obvious omission is Angry Birds. It’s a must-have download to be sure, but at this point, I have to assume you’re already working your way through the seasonal editions.
I’ve also chosen not to include what I consider no-brainer Google apps, such as Google Maps. As far as I’m concerned, Google Maps is a gimme. If you are an Android user, you should already have it installed. And, this goes for the native Gmail client as well. Google+ and Google Music are neat apps, but they have a way to go before I would call them essential.
