My old iPads become single purpose devices around the house. I have an iPad 3 with a powered speaker case. I think the case was originally $300, but I got it for $25 because of the obsolete tech. That's a dedicated GarageBand machine for when my nephews come over.

Another old iPad is the dedicated darts scoring tablet.

I do similar. I have two set up as camera monitors that can also pull up my rooftop weather station dashboard as wanted.
