Genymotion is an Android Emulator that is faster than the Android Studio Emulator. Genymotion emulator offers a wide range of virtual devices for development, test, and demonstration purpose. It has a very simple user interface and one can directly use it from Android Studio by installing its plugin only once.
The Genymotion startup time is around 5 seconds (compared to at least 30 seconds for the Android emulator). Genymotion also runs Robotium tests visibly faster, and with a smoother UI. You cannot use the special 10.0. 2.2 IP address with Genymotion to access localhost on the machine you are running the emulator from.
Android 11 will be implemented with Genymotion Desktop 3.3, and Android 12 is planned for Genymotion Desktop 3.4. - If the device you wish to emulate is not in the list, you can create your own custom template. For detailed instructions, please refer to I can't find the device I need in the virtual device list.
Android studio is an IDE for android application development, while Genymotion is an emulator or just a virtual phone where you can run/test your application (. apk file). Android studio has a default emulator, the AVD. Genymotion is faster than avd, and also better to use.
Genymotion can actually use your computer's microphone. Depending on your computer it sometimes does not work because of VirtualBox hardward support.
Here is a conversation about this topic on the Genymotion's Google Group. You should try to play with the sound configuration on VirtualBox:
Let me know what is your configuration (OS, Genymotion version).
This emulator does not support microphone if you are using windows host OS.
Genymotion developers are aware of this, they even filled a virtualbox bug.
