My Requirements
- Run Android on an x86_64 CPU (x86/x86_64 binaries preferred)
- Run inside KVM/Qemu or in an X session.
- Fast (Best performance possible)
- Install apps from Google play store
- Reasonably stable, should not crash too often.
Not required: GPU acceleration (graphics intensive apps will not be used)
Android x86 has been around for quite some time, and the last build that they have is 4.4 and was from 1st Jan 2015. Seems older than I would have expected?
I see that the official android emulator now has accel-vm but I've not seen any performance comparisons between it and Android x86.
I've also seen other related projects mentioned
- Genymotion
- bluestacks
- jar of beans
- andy
In the case of ARM dependency
If I find that some app that I need will not run on x86, what is my 2nd best alternative that can emulate ARM with good performance on an x86_64 CPU?
Any recommendations to help with the above are welcome.
