You can find different cellular networks in emulator settings, such as Full, LTE, EDGE, etc. The signal strength can also be changed.

Changing that would give you an idea of how your app behaves.

You may also change some emulator GPU or RAM settings (-gpu <value>, -no-accel, -lowram, etc.) and use ARM images instead of x86 to force slower emulation but their help understanding how you app experience would be on a slower device might be limited.

Finally, you can also pass options to qemu (see the list running emulator -qemu -h).
