I have played our world with my two kids. We have had multiple items despawn. Enchanted fishing rods, anvils, blast furnaces, ore, and saved animals. This has happened both inside chests and in player inventory.
This world has always been loaded on my sons xbox one s (50+ hours.) This morning I loaded it on my xbox one x (through his profile.) The game said it had to sync then loaded.
To our horror, the last around 6 hours of gameplay had been lost. Then when we tried to use our nether portal hub to "jump" to a different area, our nether hub had totally been destroyed. We had set ups in three different locations in what would have been an entire world away from each "jump."
In conclusion, this means when the game was loaded from the same profile on a different xbox, our save was corrupted and an entire world with close to 100 hours of combined gameplay was lost.

Despawing the items is not normal. Not under the circumstances I am reporting. I am not saying things are despawing after dying. I'm saying things are despawing from our person after saving and exiting. The next time we open the game random items will have disappeared from our persons, from chests, from inside our houses (in reference to multiple anvils and blast furnaces,) and outside our homes (in reference to named animals.)
I understand that items will despawn if they are just sitting somewhere after death or if for instance your inventory is full and you are fishing. Once they get like 30 or 40 blocks they will despawn. That despawing process literally has NOTHING to do with the way things have despawned from us.
Last night while fishing I had an enchanted rod with Lure 2, Luck of the Sea 2, and mending. The rod was on my person. I saved and exited as normal. When I loaded the game today my rod was no where to be found. That has absolutely nothing to do with the despawing process you claim is "normal."
This is progress lost from syncing (which I believe is a realms issue), not items despawning
Do not play your actual worlds in betas. At least make a copy, but because it is a beta, it is unstable and features are subject to change. It is a lot safer to wait for the release version.
but also a bit crazy that the sync is breaking for multiple people

The despawning items it's normal. After 5 minutes the items/mobs despawn if the player are not interacting with the entity. (Despawn rules)
