As of release 1.20.30, powder snow no longer prevents fall damage as intended in Minecraft Bedrock.
Falling on top of powder snow while wearing leather boots will prevent fall damage

Falling on powder snow without wearing leather boots will deal fall damage.
Whether wearing leather boots or not, falling through only part of a block of powder snow will deal fall damageΒ (for example, a player placing powder snow under themselves after their feet have already passed the top of the snow block)
Here is a demo of each scenario: https://youtu.be/I5FoxlEG6v4
Combined, these changes prevent the intended use of powder snow to prevent fall damage.
