Barclays is the only one I've found to be a pain. Others can be logged into using a browser (Amex app is fine) but Barclays requires you to use a card reader if not using the app. Luckily it's not my main account.
Which banking apps? I have a few I use regularly so that could be a showstopper.
So glad I ended up taking the Pixel! The pictures were outstanding!!
Such a difference and just some examples below.

I’m not going to say I told you so, I’ll just type it. Told you so.

You guys were dead right. I felt compelled to pull my cam out and take pics nonstop with the beautiful scenery and event (brothers wedding). I caught some fantastic pics that even when compressed on FB and other platforms, my family and friends were raving at the quality. Was so awesome to capture those moments.
Lol that I never noticed.You know what I find odd about the Pixel, the screen seems to get waaaaaay more dirty/finger printy than any other phone I've owned.
Maybe my fingers are getting oilier at my old age
Back on the Pixel 3 after a short "I miss iPhone...oh yeah this is why I left iPhone" stint. You all still using Q beta? I might wait a week and a half for the next beta. We'll see.
Do you use the Pixel gestures or another variant from the app store?
I'm trying fluid gestures but they're not as fluid as I'd like, there is a bit of a delay in certain functions.

Yes I have been running the Q beta on my main device and it has been pretty flawless so far and enjoying the dark mode and gestures.
Still prefer OxygenOS as my favorite OS at this point but enjoy the little perks from the Pixel line like the call screen, song history, and squeeze to assistant.

Is it stable enough to use as a daily driver, I've heard that some banking apps don't work.
Yes I use it as my daily driver for a couple weeks now off and on with my OP7Pro but have used it consistently for 2 weeks straight perfectly fine.
GooglePay used daily and my banking app works fine.
I'm finding them almost as good as the iPhone XS Max I had. As for a daily driver, no way I'd want to go back to using P now. At least not on a Pixel.

The Pixel 3 line has such a great camera, and if going on vacation taking pics it's the ONLY phone to bring.
Where was this?
North Georgia mountains. Such a beautiful trip and the phone represented well!
Its a small perk but its one of the things I love about the Pixel line and its OS. The little weather alerts of hotter or cooler tomorrow and the traffic alerts as it learns your commute and time.
Pretty amazing how intuitive and useful it is.

Thinking about getting a pixel 3a xl after using a friends. On paper it’s damn near as good as a 3xl, and hundreds cheaper. Am I missing something?
No glass back, wireless charging, water resistance, slightly better haptics, and a visual core processor (photos process faster on the 3 XL). But the 3a models get much better battery life. I'm happy with my 3a.
