The common features all emulators share include the ability to create multiple virtual machines, customizable CPU and RAM allocation towards the Android virtual machine, and a built-in screen recorder. These images house fully emulated and rooted Android environments, complete with home screen launchers and customizable settings. All Android emulators in this list have the VirtualBox engine built in and come with custom-made Android images. VirtualBox is a free and open-source virtualization solution for running guest operating systems, such as Windows and Linux, within the host operating system. Overwhelming user interface for non-developers.Possible graphical glitches on certain hardware configurations.Cumbersome setup process involving several downloads.

Several images are upgradable and come with Google Play and Google Services preinstalled.Also supports macOS, Linux and Chrome OS.Custom window frames to better simulate a Google phone or tablet.Official Google solution for testing Android apps.I recommend only using Android Studio if the app you need will only work on a recent Android version. Because Android Studio comes with various developer tools, this solution requires more storage space and has a complicated interface. Once you have created the image and launched the emulator, you can either log in to Google Play or drag and drop APK files to install and use Android apps.
