They introduced major changes in the usefulness of the iPad, the phone app got much better on the iPhone, iPad and the Mac. I don’t use my personal MacBook Air M2 or iPad Air 3 (last gen before the Mx transition) enough to care. But my wife just got a brand new iPad Air M3 and she has an old Intel MacBook Air. She can definitely use just her iPad Air with a regular old Bluetooth keyboard and mouse especially with the improved mic support. The better built in translation is a game changer for me and my wife since we will be spending winters in Costa Rica starting next year and my Spanish still isn’t great. But from a developers standpoint, since unlike Android, every iPhone will be able to run on device models and now developers have access to it. This is much better than last year.
