Hi guys,
         We are developing an android Esri mapping application for one of our clients. The development was mostly done using xhdpi devices(such as Galaxy s3, nexus 4,note 2..etc). Now we are optimizing the app to work for the new xxhdpi devices such as Galaxy s4 and HTC one. In these devices, the symbology for a graphic added to a map('pins' in our case) seem to be unusually bloated and blurred. We are not facing such issues in any other place in our application, this issue maybe  related to the way Esri handles the picturemarkersymbology for graphics. Can any one help solve this issue? Sample screenshots from Galaxy s3 and HTC one attached

Thanks in advance,
Tom

Update: I was able solve this issue by just copying the same imagesfrom xhdpi folder to xxhdpi folder. But this duplication of the 'pin' images affects the application size. Is this the  best approach?

You should provide the icon (graphic) in multiple sizes to support different densities.  See the design guideline for reference > Iconography | Android Developers
