Is this correct behaviour for a RadioButton? It’s not centred within its view boundaries, so when we add a TextView next to it there’s too much space

Inspected all its attributes in the layout inspector and can’t see where it’s coming from

Set the dimensions to wrap content

It is normal for default RadioButton with no text set to it. Unfortunately, even if you set empty text to it it won’t change its size to become centered. If you want to have a centered RadioButton I would suggest such hack (just set the size you need for your app):

<RadioButton
    android:id="@+id/radioButton"
    android:layout_width="30dp"
    android:layout_height="30dp"
    android:background="?android:attr/listChoiceIndicatorSingle"
    android:button="@null" />

It will produce centered RadioButton

Or remove the min size
