How to get Pixel 5 emulator in Android Studio

Question

I have a flutter app that builds and runs fine on Pixel 4a, but apparently fails to start on Pixel 5. I want to test this on a Pixel 5 emulator, but I can't find how to add it to Android Studio anywhere.

I downloaded the preview release of Android Studio and followed the other steps in the link in the answer to this question, but there is no Pixel 5 there.

Any ideas?

Answer 1

It appears that there is no great option to get a Pixel 5 emulator. Google's document, titled Set up Android Emulator to run Android 11 does not mention the Pixel 5, and the emulator has not been updated since the release of the Pixel 5.

You may be able to access one through a service like Corellium, or, create a custom hardware profile in Android Studio.
