Alongside this update, we have added additional speed improvements in loading emulator snapshots for those developers using the Intel ® Hardware Accelerated Execution Manager (HAXM). Support for these technologies was initially available in the v27.3.8 Android Emulator canary release and today we are releasing this set of preview features (AMD processor & Hyper-V support) on the stable channel for more feedback.

This exciting update makes the Android Emulator more accessible to a new set of Android app developers that were previously limited to software emulation, but can now have hardware accelerated performance.
Today, you can download the latest Android Emulator release, which is enabled to run x86 based Android Virtual Devices (AVD) on computers that use AMD processors. Support for AMD ® processors and Microsoft Hyper-V hypervisor are two long-standing user requests from the Android developer community that we are happy to address with this Android Emulator update. But for users of Microsoft ® Windows ® or the Microsoft ® Hyper-V ™ platform, our hardware accelerated speed enhancements for the Android Emulator only worked with computers with Intel ® processors. Up until now, our emulator experience has almost universally worked on macOS ® and Linux computers. Over the last few releases, we have launched quick boot & emulator snapshots for quickly starting and resuming emulator sessions in under 2 seconds. Making the Android Emulator faster is one of the top priorities for the Android Studio team. We are humbled to hear from many of you that the Android Emulator has come a long way, but we are not done yet.
Today, the Android Emulator is the top device deployed to from Android Studio - more than 2x over physical Android devices. Since the major revamp of the Android Emulator two years ago, we have focused on delivering a fast and feature-rich emulator to help you build great app experiences for users.
