Emulate Android APK apps on your PC with presets for Sony, Samsung and HTC handsets with ARM processors (similar to BlueStacks).

Genymotion is a very fast and free (with limited features) Android emulator.

The program itself is based on VirtualBox and is known for its effectively fast speed and its usefulness for running Android apps on a Windows desktop. Whether or not you are a developer, Genymotion Free allows for running Android under Windows and does it at a respectable speed.

You can use it to run virtually any type of modern Android application whether it be games or other types of applications.

Installing Genymotion is painless and despite being an emulator for ARM-based processors, it runs fine without any issues on x32 or x64-based PCs. Genymotion also includes predefined profiles for many of the most popular handsets by Samsung, Sony and HTC.

The free version is pretty basic and does not include many of the more advanced features for developers. You must also register yourself a free account with the developer in order to run the program. The Android SDK is also a prerequisite.

Overall, Genymotion is a very capable application which has no issue running Android APK apps under Windows.
