Personally i dont like the Emulators much, they are slow and dont fully replicate a phone.

I tend to debug straight to Phone via USB, you need to enable debugging via USB somewhere in the options

When you plug you Phone in via USB and your in your Xamarin project in VS, you will need to click the Allow message that appears on your phone, then VS will recognise you phone and it will change the Debug button to for instance - Debug Samsung G10
