Typically designers would turn a part to better align interfaces. e.g. if you have to chips which need to be connected you might rotate one to get the 'straighter' traces. This looks like it might be to align the DDR better to the

On the design end, I don't like the look of the camera lense. Are they able to darken the lense glass to hide the camera a bit? Maybe they could match the black of the camera sensor to the black of the glass a little more. Otherwise i
