All this is for Android.
Winamp Pro is my fav app. And SD rescan for media that doesn't show up via wifi xfer from a shared folder on my PC. After a scan, it shows up in Winamp. Thing i like best about Winamp is that it looks up and tags your music automatically with ID3 and album art.
I don't do Social Media, but I've used Skype a few times with good results.
The Kindle app is my Fav for reading. I've tried three or four, but found this to be the best.
ES file explorer is probably the most useful app i have.

Watch ESPN is fantastic for sports, but I'm not sure if it would work in the UK. I doubt it.
I use Dolphin browser most of the time. Very smooth and fast, much more so than Chrome.
IMDB app is great for looking up movies and TV shows etc. Can see ratings, info, reviews and trailers.
Amazon mobile app is great as well.
I use Farlex offline Dictionary app which comes in handy quite a bit.
Nova launcher. Much better UI than Samsung's touch wiz.
Dropbox is really nice, although i don't use it. I just access my shared files folder via ES file explorer. Saves the time of uploading to DB on the PC.
Google Maps.
Clean master is really good for cleaning up the cache, unwanted APK's or apps etc.
Lookout security is quite good for many security needs.
World clock is cool for seeing the times in all parts of the world and all major cities.
Stop watch and alarm apps.
