'''MediaTek Inc.''' is a Taiwanese semiconductor company, best known for producing system-on-chips, [[central processing unit|processor]]s and application platforms used on el-cheapo [[cellular phone|cellphones]], [[tablet]]s and whatever consumer electronics people use.

Mediatek's solutions comprise of turnkey, off-the-shelf components and software - with this business model, the lads and lasses at MTK do most of the dirty work while all the client has to do is to come up with their own customisations and bloatware. Among the cellphone community, they basically earned a bit of [[lulz|infamy]] for [[antic dealer|supplying]] small, backlot "Shanzhai" firms with the necessary tooling to churn out counterfeit phones or [[/dev/null|glorified paperweights]].

Their stance with [[Android]] is also an issue, and was viewed with cynicism and acrimony from open-source developers due to [[imbecile|their refusal to comply with the GPL]].
