The AX series, which is what iPads were using before the M series, were precisely the chip family that got rebranded as the M1, M2, etc.
The iPads always had a lot of power, people simply started paying more attention when the chip family was ported to PC.
I just don’t push it at all. The few games I play are not complicated in graphics or CPU needs. I don’t draw, 3D model, use Logic or Final Cut or anything like that.
I agree the extra power is useful to some people. But even there we have the M1 (what I’ve got) and the M2 models. But I bet there are plenty of people like me who mostly bought the pro models for the better screen and not the additional grunt.
