Just read, with Lexar's end only one manufacturer for XQD cards is left: Sony (they inventend them, so much to Lexar's "innovations" 
). Speed increase is no innovation itself, I think. But even if so: As long as the cmaera's interfaces are slowing the write process down, faster speed is only for read operations and depending on the specs of the card reader.
Since most cameras still only offer USB 2.0 as data connection (only few have USB 3.0 / 3.1, none comes with thunderbolt / USB-C) the cards can be read out quicker.
