React Native SVG onPress and Image Issues on Samsung A54

I am having some issues with running React Native successfully on Samsung A54 (and potentially other devices). I am building in expo and using a development build. My main two issues are:

PNG images become very distorted/jagged

• I have tried using the native Image component as well as Expo-Image
• I have tried providing a single oversized PNG, a single proper sized PNG, and scaled 1,2x,3x versions in both of the above components
• It does not respect resizeMode/contentFit consistently relative to other Android devices or iOS
• The same screens on other Android or iOS devices look crisp, aligned, and perfect

SVG elements don't recognize touch

• I have within my react-native-svg component I have various svg elements, including layers and I pass an onPress={()=>DoMyCommand()}
• I do not have other properties on the aside from onPress
• When tapping on the element on the A54, nothing happens
• When tapping on the element on my iPhone or other Androids, DoMyCommand fires just fine

I am wondering if anyone else has encountered issues like these and how you addressed them? Is this device just anti-RN?

I have limited physical devices and have only seen this issue on this physical device. I am worried the issue exists on other devices I do not have access to.

I am using a device cloud for other testing on real devices and I similarly don't get this issue there. NOTE: the screenshots provided have additional JPG artifacts as the remote tool I am using only lets me download screenshots from the devices as JPGs.

I am at a complete loss. Any help is appreciated!

My dependencies:

"dependencies": {
    "@react-native-async-storage/async-storage": "1.23.1",

  }

I ran into the same onPress problem and used the workaround listed here to use a PanGestureRecognizer instead of onPress. Annoying to have to do, but it worked for me.
