Android - Different Builds

as far as i've read, Google Play will look for the architecture of the 
device where the app will be installed and then pushes the best fit to it.

Just like LC950dp1 now is checking the device before pushing a stack to 
test on your phone. Monte confirmed LC does it and you can also quickly 
see a popup telling his.


I guess the build-in emulator makes the app work slower then using a 
build for the architecture

Also Intel and Intel 64 build would work on an Intel 64 bit processor. But this logic breaks as an armv7 build will work on an Intel device(via built-in emulator)???
