Messages in iCloud is the big one for iOS users. With the feature, all your iMessages are stored in iCloud. When you delete one message from one device, it'll delete on all your other synced devices.

HomePod stereo pairing lets you connect two of the smart speakers together. iOS 11.4 also adds Calendar support to HomePod.

AirPlay 2 is available for all iOS devices and HomePod (no news on Mac support yet). The feature lets you stream lag-free music to AirPlay 2-compatible speakers and create multi-room speaker setups.
