Is a MediaTek processor good for gaming?
Gaming has become so popular in recent years, that most, if not all, young smartphone users first check if the processor of a particular smartphone is capable of supporting gaming or not. When it comes to gaming and that too within a budget, I think Mediatek is definitely at the very top. Now, I know that a lot of people make a point to bash Mediatek every chance they get. It’s possible they may have had some unpleasant experiences with a processor but that shouldn’t be taken as the general opinion. I have used plenty of smartphones powered by Mediatek whether it is priced in budget range or mid-range and I have usually had no issues at all. Especially when it comes to gaming, I have experienced nearly flawless performance from Helio G series chipsets from Mediatek.
What makes MediaTek special, one might venture to question. In an industry where everyday billions of advancements are made in order to make consumers feel connected and satisfied, the selling point of MediaTek largely sits on its affordability. So while a lot of skeptics are out there spreading false information that some brand is not up to the mark just because it is cheaper, does not mean it is always true. In the case of MediaTek, it’s affordability makes it able to birth one of the most accessible smartphones in the market making it really popular mostly among young buyers.
Besides the obvious popularity of MediaTek in the smartphone market, its G series is also responsible for providing a great mobile gaming experience like I mentioned. The Helio G series of Mediatek comes with quick sensing touch screens for a lag-free display in between, and vibrant visuals with sharp details and brilliant colours giving the user a very smooth gameplay and making the gaming experience richer. MediaTek’s in-house HyperEngine Gaming Technology comes in to make sure to offer the best experience. It was first used in the MediaTek Helio G90 and G90T chipsets and now it is in its advanced third stage which is paired with the 5G Dimensity chipsets so that along with offering 5G capabilities, the Dimensity processors are also well equipped to handle gaming. The technology optimizes these platforms to make the gaming experience more fluid, responsive, with reliable connections and true-to-life visuals.
Various smartphones belonging to well-known brands are powered by MediaTek chips like Realme, Xiaomi, OPPO etc. MediaTek’s Helio G series, especially designed for an enhanced and powerful gaming experience for the budget and mid-ranger smartphones, delivers on expectations. With its rapid sensing touchscreens and vibrant visuals, making for a rich and realistic gameplay, the Helio G series chipset family by MediaTek has made gamers very happy with its performance at the price. Like I mentioned, the Helio G series comes with the company’s in-house technology the HyperEngine gaming technology which provides eye-popping images and a lag-free run which makes the gaming experience smooth sailing. This technology boosts the device’s power and does great in tackling graphically challenging games like PUBG and Fortnite which can make even a very high-end device heat up fast.
This advanced and very efficient technology by MediaTek powers through even when the gameplay and graphics settings are all maxed out in the smartphone during a game, and it delivers without taking a toll on the phone’s battery life and performance. The MediaTek HyperEngine technology uses AI to consistently deliver a smooth-running gaming experience while managing the phone’s resources. The HyperEngine gaming technology is MediaTek’s one major USP which makes it stand out from the crowd with its smart game solutions on the Helio G70 and G80 making it more than capable of providing a very reliable gaming experience on budget smartphones.
MediaTek also boasts of providing a very reliable AI technology solutions for home, healthcare and enterprises, that supports voice assistant devices (VAD) and smart speakers, such as Amazon Alexa, JBL Link Music and Google Home. So, if you really consider it bad you may then recheck your stance on these mentioned products as well. Mediatek powered smartphones are more affordable, but that is not at the cost of performance. It’s a well established fact that before buying phones, customers would look into the hardware and the processor powering the smartphone. In so many cases, at similar price points, Mediatek processors have outperformed rival chipsets. The major aspect of Mediatek that differentiates it from its rivals is that it focuses on providing consumers with efficient as well as affordable products multiplying its accessibility to the masses.

Various smartphones belonging to well-known brands are powered by MediaTek chips. These include- OPPO, Realme, Vivo, LG and many others. Now these are reputed and well established brands that are willingly using mediatek as their choice of processor to power devices they are manufacturing. So, in conclusion I’d say that mediatek processors are as good as any other chipset that you might swear by, sometimes it’s even better than them.

The organisation’s vast technological advancements is making it one of the biggest manufacturers of fabless chipsets in the industry along with the fact that MediaTek is constantly putting in efforts for new developments accompanied by staggering advancements to become the emerging name in the industry, while always putting its customer’s needs on the forefront.
