I have a PNG image 1024x1820 px with a transparent background.
Irrespective of wthere I set base size or not, I get this terrible scaling:

Just guessing but it could be your icon doesn't have enough of a transparent border around it. For example, if your image was 300x300, the icon WITHIN the image should be 200x200 and centered. I'd recommend reading the splash screen documenation for Android and MAUI.

I'd also recommend using an SVG if you can, MAUI usually does a good job of scaling it to the sizes required. If you need something more custom for each platform/Android API, that is possible too.
