Does the 8 plus normally have raised/rough edges where the glass meets the metal frame?

On the back I can feel an edge, assuming its the plastic gasket between the glass and metal band but after using the seamless 7 plus this doesn't feel great on the hand.

The front glass blends into the metal band in a smooth way. Not sure if my model is slightly off or normal?

That sounds slightly abnormal to me. I don't have any rough edges near the glass and metal frame. Everything feels completely even and smooth on mine. Perhaps your model just is manufactured slightly different.

I'm guessing the back should feel as smooth a transition as the front?

I think I'm noticing the front glass to be more curved than the flatter back. Is this right?
