Simple question about to move to android and is there any advantage on using a gmail email over normal email I have 2 google accounts that one and a other one without email for app play store. Only asking as never use the gmail account.

Google Now works better, and it integrates with a couple other Google services. Other than that, not really. It's just an email address like any other.

Gmail offers tight integration with Android, Google Now, and all Google services. plus - you look like a schmo using yahoo or aol etc.
