Great ideas! Dmitry or Bernd, do you know of any quick way to cap Android internet connection speeds on a physical device without rooting the device for doing side by side comparisons on medium to low speed connections? I can think of some less quick ways and also about how an emulator may sort of achieve the same, but was curious about simple ways to test on physical devices.
