I am on my 3rd S8+ replacement for pink edges and I have the 4th one on its way. The update slightly reduced the pink edges on the left/right side but made the top edge blue.
On a side note, I am selling a carbon fibre dbrand skin. Check out the buy and sell section

Are you sure about that? The bue light filter should only make the display warmer. Like how f.lux does on a Mac.

It allows you to roll without a wallet and you just bring the essentials with you. Licence, CC and maybe debit card. There's also a pocket just under the card slots that you can stuff some cash into.

As for a case with a kickstand? I'd go with the spigen tough armour or the ultra hybrid s.

If you are looking for a kickstand case Case Mate sells one and Spigen sells 3 different ones. Spigen also sells a metal kickstand that you can just stick to a case of your choosing.

Nice case. I got mine in Friday. I like how it's so slim. In pictures looks so bulky. I work with my hands alot and this case just feels soft and smooth . I had a UAG case. Great protection but a bit rough on my hands.
What are your thoughts on it?
