Audio is badly distorted with any settings
Using a simple HDMI output to AVR (NVIDIA card HDMI, base setup) the audio is stuttering and badly distorted. I've played with every combination of the settings, the only change was nosound at all with other than the AC97 audio controller (Intel HD, Soundblaster). Genymotion launcher does not have ANY settings for audio, you have to configure it in Oracle Virtualbox settings.

Simple setup
Installation is standard and after installing and launching Genymotion you'll have to log in. Once signed in, you can create your virtualized Android device.

Uses Virtualbox separately, configuration is annoying
It is bundled with Virtualbox is the meaning of it's also downloaded. During the install, you have to separately install Virtualbox and manage it after, meaning uninstalling manually when Genymotion is already uninstalled. The separate install causes ridiculous setup process, where yoiu have to set properties in the Genymotion launcher AND the Oracle Virtualbox launcher, too. Very awkward.

Takes a while to get used to
After installing F.lux, the screen will look a lot more yellow. This takes about a week to fully get used to. You can ease into it by setting the color temps higher than the recommended defaults.
