I don't know if you would count this as innovations, but magsafe, the glass trackpad still ahead of anything else and the full unibody enclosure in my mind are clear innovations that made a mac a much better alternative than the competition. I also think they were only possible because people are willing to pay a little more to get macOS, thus allowing Apple a higher price point to develop and include those features.

I'm now one of those willing to pay for macOS, but the hardware is a big downside to the OS experience. For example, being limited to 16gb because of power consumption because they picked LPDDR3 memory instead of LPDDR4.
