A great advantage of Memu emulator is that you can use any or all of the Android Jelly Bean, Kit Kat and Lollipop versions with this emulator.  Lots of other emulators do not provide you this option and many uses only Android Kit Kat kernel. You are also able to change the brand, model, IMEI, map location, screen orientation, and get screen shots, shake the screen, zoom in and out, multi touch (in Windows tablets), set keyboard / joystick mapping, import and export data etc.

Another unique feature of MEmu App Player is that it also has a portable version so you can copy it to your flash disk, take wherever you are and use it in different Windows computers without installation.

Installation of the stable version of Memu is quite easy; download and double click to the setup file, that’s it. It has a home screen UI similar to Nox App Player with its tool box at the right side. Here you can make lots of adjustments and customizations.

Almost all the games on Google Play are compatible with Memu and they all run smoothly. MEmu supports all resolutions so you can enjoy playing on big screen with high-resolutions as long as the game you will play supports it.

Multiplayer mode is also easy to start and use, and you can create and use multiple instances at once; You change CPU or RAM allocations accordingly. (For increasing the number of CPU core, hardware virtualization feature should be enabled on your PC) For better performance in games, you can also enable Virtual Technology (Intel VT or AMD V) from your BIOS settings. You can also assign virtual memory if you think you don’t have enough RAM and get a better performance from games.

MeMu is a great choice for an Android experience on Windows desktops, laptops and tablets and has superior qualities to its competitors like Bluestacks, Andy, Genymotion etc. If you need an Android emulator, it is worth giving a chance to it.
