Bluestacks

[OPTiK]

I used Bluestacks to play Clash of Clans on my SP3, but I ran across some issues when I tried to adjust DPI/resolution through the registry. Overall I'd say the Bluestacks is decent, hopefully future releases will resolve speed/resolution issues.

I have been using BLUESTACKS few months ago and wasn't totally convinced , with my ASUS Zenbook I installed Android x86 which was working pretty well.
When I switched to the SP3 I tried to run Android x86 on Virtualbox but it was really slow, a lot of problem of screen resolution , and installation in Gub had WiFi issues.
So I came back to BLUESTACKS on the SP3 i5 and ......... it's amazing how well it works !!!!!, really fluid , I use it for my favorites Android app: Alpinequest (maps and POI) Ultimate Guitar , Google Books...
And you can put on the start menu Icons like if they where Windows Software.. like shown in the picture!!!!!..

The only bad news is it isn't free anymore, except if you accept to download commercials apps every day...
