Yeah but ram generally only helps you at multitasking or run programs that are heavy dependent on memory.
Realistically over rated by adverts on TV to speed PC's up, in fact most PCs are slow down by their cpu and harddrive spin speed.

Granted it looks like they moved it to the top but if anything the old nexus speakers could be cupped by your hand while holding it and sort of redirect the sound waves to a listenable volume to your ears. Now you'll just be annoying the heck out of the person seated in front of you at (conference, bus, plane...).
