@ABG It was just researching this to try another emulator. Some Forum posts and answers -maybe from a very old post- indicate Memuplay as an excellent alternative. I even opened the page, to take a look, but I didn't get it installed. Now your suggestion has left me in doubt... and a lot of time is lost with all these comparative tests.
I would like to know if you have already had a chance to test the Memuplay and still indicate the superiority of Genymotion, so that I can choose between one of the two and thus proceed directly with a single installation.
I have documented some of my emulator experiences in
I just checkd, and my laptop has MemuPlay and MultiMemu installed on, both free with game ads. The Multi-Memu is useful when you need several emulator images, working cross-version on test Companions.
My desktop PC runs BlueStacks 5, also free with ads, but the ads are on the side, where I can clip around them when making demo runs.
P.S. Regarding GenyMotion, I have used that in the past, but it required a different apk file for the Companion, names emulator.apk, due to some low level architectural difference in that emulator documented in the FAQ. Life's too short for that.
What do you think a good emulator means? In my opinion, any that works is good. Another issue is what API a given emulator works on and what API you need. I have Android Studio installed and I have emulators for every API from 28 to 35. In addition, I also have BlueStack which works on API30.
How about trying out the emulators you wrote about and then letting us know if they're "good"?
