Beta 8.1

I am also having problems with the Play store crashing every time I hit "read more." I've been using the 8.1 beta since it was released, but only noticed the problem today.
 
No the new saturated mode isn't released yet. My bet is 8.1 release 2 due out sometime this month will have it. The Vivid colors option gives a 10% boost but it's barely noticeable. Right now the only way you can get a more saturated look is to use the app Oreo Colorizer which you can find via a google search.

I too get the crash from the playstore on read more..

Do you mean this "Read more" link? It works fine for me.

I have Play Store version 8.3.41.U-all [0] [FP] 170066753. If I tap on it, it pops a box that says Google Play Store is up to date.

If you are running the same version, try going to Settings -> Apps & notifications -> Google Play Store -> Force Stop and then Storage -> Clear Cache. Those two things often solve Play Store problems.

It seems to have just fixed itself. I did just install a Google app update so maybe it was in there.

There is no longer a "Clear Cache" in Settings/Storage.
