Interesting observation in point 1. I dunno if my eyes are playing tricks on me but I too seem to have notice the red tint lessening over time. To the point where I can leave everything at default now. 

My other theory is that it's just placebo effect for me from the start. I thought there's a red tint but when I show my friends (graphic designer who have a good eye for colour temperature), they don't see any redness - in fact more green tint than red in their opinion.

Not saying there is no red tint issue but I'm slightly relieved that the red tint issue seemed to have worked itself out, regardless if it's just mind tricks.

That's why I found it interesting that you think the adaptive display mode could be the problem solver

Pentile matrix for amoled is RGBG... there will be twice as many green compared to red or blue. However most people can't see the green. They only noticed the yellow, red.

I left the phone from 1130pm last night on the wireless pad with ori cable & plug. On the screen written 'wireless fast charging. Time to full 1 hr plus'.

This morning woke, saw the phone still charging at 84% but no fast charging & time to full written. Only something like 'charging'. Anybody else had same proble?

Place it properly. After that make sure the screen off with red charging led on. Are you using thick case?

I put my wife S8+ with stock clear case on first gen without fast charging also can fully charge.

I like to use my phone while  charging but I notice the % is going down instead of up.

Unfortunately the current for wireless charging still not there yet. Anything less than 2.1A just would *not* have enough to charge while using. Just like using Xiaomi 5k power bank, at 1.5A, it's not even charging but battery draining at slower rate. Once I use the 10k with 2.1A, no problem playing games while charging.

Those who think using while charging is dangerous might as well turn their phone off during charging. Otherwise it's just contradicting.

Wasn't that latest update, Samsung block Bixby button remap to third party app?

The last I heard is that they change the algorithm to detect bixby launching and countered it. Is it still the same?

I use package disabler pro and completely disable bixby. Before that I did test few bixby remap app but doesn't seem to work ?

Samsung already patched this. I read they were using some option in accessibility to do it, but Samsung already patched it. Later I read there's one that was able to remap by detecting bixby launching and countered it.

Edit:

Found it. Apparently it was half cooked and haven't develop properly. Just simply showing off.

Yes, but overnight drain of more than 20% in on the high side. Suggest you perform a soft reset. Whats the app thats draining out your battery?
*
Uninstall Facebook and messenger would help a lot. That's the only two I wouldn't install back in any android phone. One wouldn't believe how much it takes the toll on the battery despite what was reflected in the battery status details.

Edit:

I'm lying... I just did for my wife S8+. However there's no Fb nor messenger on my phone. Therefore I really noticed how much better the battery consumption was after I removed both from my S6e.

[attachmentid=8792571] guys. I think my phn hving red tint issue..left phn in the image is mine compared to s8 plus.. called samsung.. thy advised to wait for another software update.. and asked me to set the red to lowest under screen mode setting.. but the red tint still noticeable.. what to do now?
*
It's red when you look at angle but what's like looking straight on?

Personally I find it's not red when looking straight and slightly red at angles.

You can type *#15987# on dialer. It will bring up a menu. If the value is 0, change to either 1,2 or 3 and see if you like what you're seeing.

S7e brighter. Pushed the brightness.

S8 true to scene. Retain the details.

The idea is not to push the iso to make the photo bright. The idea is to capture what is there.

Bad camera = dark. Cant see sh1t
S7e = boast up the brightness. Artificial.
S8 = capture the dark scene and let you see what your eyes suppose to see.

Something to share.

Compared the S7E with S8/8+ side by side and found the S7E display to be slightly brighter with the same brightness settings. This happened with auto and full brightness.

Hmmm....
*
Of course there will be variation. Even in profesional tests, both are really close in terms of brightness. I feel like no matter what the promoter answered, you'll never be satisfied because you trust what you are seeing.

There are many factor which can affect the screen output. The red tint could be responsible for making it look darker than it should be or the color temperature settings.

No issue for me though. I dont connect my messenger. My main gripe on battery drain would be android playstore and android itself.
*
Playstore would not drain battery. Perhaps it is because I turned off auto updating. The one thats really draining battery would be Play Services (not sure if I got the name correct). Its the gaming account services that is draining the most for me.
