Versions

Snes9x-Next is an optimized version of Snes9x 1.52 with speedhacks and is available as a libretro core for RetroArch. Use only for low-end computers and mobile devices.

Review

It is a very good SNES emulator, far superior to ZSNES. It has very high compatibility and is easy to use. It is not as accurate as higan, but that shouldn't be an issue for most people. The stable release is very old, so use the latest SVN build instead if possible. Also, it's recommended not to use the official site because the developers have lost access to it many years ago.
