The ESP32 module being away from the edge of the board, with the ground plane completely surrounding its antenna, is the first thing that jumped out at me. Typically RF modules like that are intended to be placed overhanging the edge of the board, or abutting the edge with a large copper-free area to the left and right of the antenna.
I don't think that's indicative of an unfixable issue per se, but it's not a great look in the promo photo.
