IntelliJ, you can get the ultimate edition for free if you are a student. But anyways you don't need any of the ultimate features.
Eclipse is okay except when it comes to using git, formatting it, finding the setting you want, installing packages, updating, and debugging.
It has a giant tree of settings, except it's really not formatted well. It uses vague names for each menu, as if "options", "settings" or "configuring" are any different. Git just does not work well, you often have to resort to using the command line. You can install separate packages in Eclipse but it has two different ways of doing it, one is a "marketplace" (of free software) and one is more of a tools menu. If you have an outdated Eclipse (i.e. it's Eclipse [random astronomy word 1] instead of the new updated Eclipse [random astronomy word 2]) then the marketplace will just not work. (and you'll have to install the new eclipse and lose all your settings and have to dig through the tree again). The debug tool is rather tedious, as well.

plague vs cholera?
Lol I learned on netbeans back in high school.

IntellJ
Its also free for students
intellij is nice, but you'll probably see eclipse used more in the workplace.

Maybe in poor Pajeet workplaces.
Emacs, Nano, VIM and javac.
then ant, maven and gradle.
Now you are better than pajeet.

Netbeans is easier to use than eclipse. IntelliJ is the best but many of the advanced features are behind a paywall.

Fine for small projects but eventually you'll want a proper IDE. Might as well start learning how to use it straight away. Java is a bitch due to million packages and billion classes in larger projects.
Slighty off topic, i'm working with STS, however i've been given the chance to use intelliJ.
Pro/cons?

If you need the eclipse workflow (because you like it/the project is being developed in eclipse/any other reason) you can also use vim + eclim.
It runs a headless eclipse server that vim connects to, and you can do anything you'd be able to do with eclipse using vim commands (which you can obviously bind to keyboard shortcuts).

IntelliJ, even big corporations are ditching eclipse for it now, and that was the only thing eclipse had going for it (learn it now, use it when you get a job).

My high-school made us use that.
Install gentoo
intellij is almost exactly like android studio because android studio is built on intellij or something.
Netbeans.
notepad
jGrasp
