Try fast-paced games or any audio/music apps. Latency is quite terrible, makes GarageBand itself unusable.

why would i care about latency in a music streaming app? i dont need the play/pause button to be accurate to the ms.

GarageBand is a music production app, but, as your question was about more mundane usage, this guy's article makes the point that the audio is no longer a replacement for haptic feedback. It also crippled his app a bit.
