Arrows on Bedrock edition appear to travel well over two times the distance of their Java counterpart whereas eggs and snowballs return almost the exact same distances on both versions.
Tested by standing level with the ground in a super flat world and shooting at a specific pitch then mapping the distance travelled by the projectile.
Graph showing results for arrows and snowballs on both Java and Bedrock:

So that I can try to reproduce your observation, please tell me what method you're using to gauge your pitch angle precisely.
Confirmed in 1.9.0 on Windows 10. The arrow distances shown for Bedrock in the graph were reasonably close to the distances I measured. I am unable to test on Java Edition and assume the graph is accurate.
Steps to reproduce:
In a flat world in Creative mode (I suggest peaceful, always day, no mob spawning, weather cycle off):
Obtain an unenchanted bow and some plain arrows.
Execute the command /tp 0 4 0 0 -angle where angle is the pitch angle to be tested. Note the minus sign before it.
Without reorienting yourself, draw and fully charge your bow, then release.
Locate the arrow. Its Z coordinate is roughly equal to the distance it flew.
Thank you for your report!
