A lot more powerful and efficient when compared the stock Android emulator. You can communicate via ADB as usual too...

Have you tested it? How does it compare vs Bluestacks?
Hi I installed and runs equal than a real Device, in fact you can choose between the most popular phones, Galaxy Tabs and this kinds of models... I don't try to put some GLbasic code, I think for this it's needed the ADB , isn't?¿.
Rebember to download Virtual Machine, because you read quick the install instructions don't see it... The little I touch and I look the emulator I think it's the same than install Android under virtual Box, runs whit a correct Speed.
It is one fast emulator - its probably as good as a real device...
You don't get the Google Store, but there are others you can use instead...
Will need to work out how to install stuff later on...
So this emu seems to run quite good performance wise?
I wonder if it emulates the power(processing) of each device.
Could be a great tool to check if not-so powerfull devices will run our apps.
Anyone got a hint about that?
Whilst I have got a GLBasic to install, it wont run unfortunately - it crashes on start-up. This is using a 10.1 WXGA device (standard).
I'm just going to try the Nexus One now - Yes, it works on that!
Going to try the 10.1 tablet with Google apps now...
MrT how do you do for Android for put the app into de device?¿, I try to share a folder in the Virtual Machine into Virtual Box and I can see any place to put the file and launch it?¿
GLBasic wont install onto Genymotion directly for some reason, although it can do with the emulator.
So I use ADB to install the package.
When you have Bluestacks running and compile for Android, your game gets automatically installed inside Bluestacks - sounds like its the better choice?
It is good, and doesn't need an account... Not sure its as fast though...
One advantage Bluestacks does have is that most Android Play applications work...
Bluestacks will only take signed APK's though...No, that is wrong now - which is great!
The former is an important part, and thus I have decided to use Bluestacks over Genymotion now...

Very interesting, this was one of the reasons I stopped using Bluestacks, was that the signed APKs were acting flaky.
