They reduce power consumption and thermal management needs. That means more compute per a given battery constraint or thermal envelope. High-end mobile phones and laptops benefit.

Is consumer computing really the major demand now and going forward. Or is it senors, automation, networking, and cloud compute?

And I can almost garuentee it's better for the environment if I continue using my device or an old one rather than upgrading to the new iphone soon.
