I don't understand why MyBoy is most popular?

    About Android GBA emulator, most people recommends MyBoy, but I tried it, and I'll never use it again because some terrible thing.
    1. MyBoy has bad PSG audio emulation, from old to new version, from past to now, are those developers think their emulation is perfect, and never try to improve its quality?
    2. MyBoy has no Prescale filter, your option is only linear or non. Because 1080÷240 (or 160 if horizontal) ≠ integer, each pixel dot looks terrible.
    3. MyBoy has a bit long audio delay, and no option to reduce it.
    4. MyBoy has a little weird color space, may be most people couldn't notice it. For example, white 248,248,248 will display as 255,251,255, that means white is no longer pure.
    5. MyBoy couldn't set custom folder to store save file, screenshot.

    MyBoy has three advantages though, it costs less hardware to run game, it could link trade locally, it emulates gravity so you can play WarioWare: Twisted, otherwise I don't think it would be recommended, I don't understand it.
