WiFi 6 (802.11ax) not much faster than WiFi 5 (802.11ac)?

Speedtest.net

I recently upgraded to the NETGEAR CAX 80 AX6000 with AX-WiFi6 support. I ran a speed test on a laptop with intel AX201 160mhz and got 1500mbps (1.5gbps) on WiFi with ping around 2ms but when I did tests on devices like the M1 iPad Pro and literally every other devices my speeds most of the time is almost identical to AC-WiFi 5 speeds at 650mbps, I rarely get speeds above 700mbps from 700-900mbps, sometimes the WiFi even drops to 400, 200, and even 90mbps. I have the AP set to 4800mbps transmit mode which I think enables 160mhz and also the Channel is at 128, don't seem to have any issues there because none of my neighbors is using DFS channels and I don't get radar interference. To recap, on 80mhz devices, the speeds didn't improve, and in fact is sometimes worse than AC-WiFi 5 (Plus I only have 6 devices on the 5ghz band) All of my tests are done either using the command prompt/terminal, iPerf, or reliable internet speed test servers like speedtest.net or Ubiquiti WiFi man App.
