Since Android Studio 3 2 and Android Emulator 27 3 8 - the android emulator is supported by Windows Hypervisor Platform and as stated in the official android developer blog - there is mac support  since OS X v10 10 Yosemite  and windows support  since April 2018 Update   You may find further instructions on the developer blog   In my opinion  the performance is significantly better than all previous workarounds

On mine  I had to install ARM AEBI a7a System Image and Google APIs  and also installed MIPS which was only available for API 15  16  and 17  I didn t go below 15   Took about 12 hours of tinkering  but it works now    alternatively  you can use Genymotion as an emulator  however will most likely lose design abilities otherwise available with included emulators    It works now  Pretty slow  but it works  Of course  once you have the emulator started  as long as you don t close it  it will be much faster    You may need to restart Android studio  and I restarted my entire computer just for good measure    Hope that helps
