I have no problem causing my web browser to crash with several tabs open at once and maxing out the 2GB of ram on it which just causes the browser to crash to home screen. Or opening 2 games at once or having 4 or 5 apps open at once then playing a movie then playing a game. Ok i had to test out that theory but I can max out 2GB if I want on any device I want.
 
2GB of ram? Seriously?
Exactly how many apps on android use more than 1GB of ram? even after several days of intense usage of my N5, with tons of apps suspended, and chrome and asphalt 8 open, ive never seen even 1GB usage, let alone 2.

Some people just want to have a beefy specs just to look cool.
 
Personally im waiting for least 4 gigs of ram and moving away from crap flash hdds. Mean cmon this isnt the 90's our tablet/phones can use more then 1.2-2mb transfer speeds. Soon as manufacturers discover these things called ssd's no more super slow flash hdds. And os taking 50% of available ram.
 




...or some people actually use their mobile devices for more than flash games, and don't want to have to cripple their browsing habits because the mobile device can't handle it.

I use my nexus 5 extensively as well, both as a buisness phone and for quick research. Because of the way that I use my internet browser (that is, actually making good use of tabs), I do often find myself running out of ram.
 
DirectStylus isn't limited to only chisel-tip styluses, the HP Slate 7 Extreme uses a rounded conical point and can still do a fair job of emulating pressure sensitivity.

This post displays a total lack of understanding on Android, storage and RAM.

For a start, the OS using the RAM is not a bad thing at all. It's by design and it's so you speed up the system. If a game or app ever needed RAM the system would free up RAM.

What do you think SSD storage is? Magical fairy blocks? SSD's are NAND flash chips. The very same kind of chips found in phones and tablets. They are not at all, in any way, slow. SDcards are slow.

You are too stupid to be buying these things and posting on websites. Please do not ever try to influence someone on any kind of mobile device purchase.

My SGS4 has 2GB RAM. I use it for games (not "flash" games - they don't exist on Android phones just FYI), browsing (I've noticed around 15 tabs open at once before today), music, etc. And I've barely used more than 75% of the RAM. The games I play are 200MB-1GB in size (assets, mostly, I don't suppose most of that is loaded into RAM, that'd be ridiculous).

No offence, but your phone was designed for multitasking, but there's a reasonable limit.
 


There is absolutely a reasonable limit, but for something such as a tablet, the point of which is to provide an ultra-portable web browser (at least in my eyes), I'd like it to be able to support the 40+ tabs I have in a bookmark folder if I'm continuing research I had left off at a previous point.
 
Well this Sony Xperia Zl at startup and prolonged useage seems to like using 84% of ram without browser open. As for ssd comment meant real ssds that can transfer more the 800kb-1.2mbs. The kinda flash we have now is Extremely slow crippled. SD cards can be slow if you buy them from a dollar store. If you get the SanDisk Extreme they tend to be alot faster then internal flash.
