The personal category will include all your personal messages, while the transaction will include all of your transactions made or received. One of the useful category they have added is the OTP, this feature will automatically delete the OTP messages after 24 hours. The purpose of this is to make the messaging app less untidy.
The features are now on a beta version of messages and will be officially added to the regular one very soon.
