React is an excellent library what you can put at the foundation of your framework with a broad ecosystem and exciting ideas like Expo. But forever beta status doesn't allow to count on it well.

People often compare Maturity over Specification.They also compare popularity rather than the fit for the job. I've read a lot of "X has a lot of community rather than Y" and "X can do that in Y too!". RN is still v0.57.4 while Flutter is in 0.10.2. Flutter hits v1.0 on December 4. That means out of beta. Out of doubts.

Flutter has great Developer Experience. With all the tooling and packages. I don't have problems in installation.

and to be precise, Cross-platform is not really the best solution when using native apis(Bluetooth,GPS,IoT,Google Assistant/Siri).

I like Javascript, but for the web development.

Absolutely agreed, this frameworks don't play against native developers, complex apps still require complex approach.
