Thermal relief on some GND vias not others! Copper pours slivers with no via at one end, antennas. USB3318 thermal vias devoid of copper pour on bottom layer. A couple of dodgy looking solder joints and some flux not cleaned off. T juction traces near the xtals.Nothing special, standard commercial type basic layout a bit scrappy.

In fact the soldering quality on the WaveIO is much better...

It looks like the connectors and through hole components have been soldered on after the SMD assembly, not the best joints I have seen.
If I was to categorize the quality of this assembly I would say it is lower end consumer products, IPC class 1 workmanship and general quality.

poor is how I would describe it, ive seen better soldering from noobs here on the forum...

I was being polite, as whenever I seem to open my mouth on here regarding PCB design, quality , workmanship or clock mods (the bodge ones involing 10s to 100s of MHz) I get shot down, often cos my views dont fit with the fantasy world of design some exist in.😀There from the real world...
