If you want layout feedback, this is the baseline information to include so the review can stay technical instead of generic.

  • Layer stackup and board thickness
  • Critical nets, edge rates, and interface speeds
  • Connector locations and cable environment
  • Power tree and current levels
  • Areas you already suspect are risky
  • Whether the priority is EMC, manufacturability, thermals, cost, or all of them

Good reviews usually focus on return-current continuity, reference changes, partitioning, decoupling placement, noisy current loops, and where the mechanical constraints are forcing compromises.
