Banking Apps
I use >10 apps from >5 different finance-related entities. All of them work as intended on CalyxOS. Yet YMMV. You may want to run the ones you're intending to use through Plexus.

Question about new phones rather than using an older one
If you cannot afford a Pixel in your region and still want a degoogled ROM I would suggest you DivestOS (it is based on LineageOS but degoogled) if you don't need microG or Sandboxed Play Services. See app support on Plexus. Maybe you will find a phone that is reported as Tested and Working + Lockable bottloader.

create an isolated environment in calyx and install in this environment the google play services
i understand, however what i mean is, you dont need google, the apps work just fine, also sandboxed gapps is worse than microg, not all apps are gonna work still, some wont, microg probably got more compatibility. both cant support in app purchases, however any non gapps supported purchases will work just fine, specially if its in the browser, as well as banking apps work, its rare if a banking app wont work, however you may find apps that dont work. btw i think that you confused with sandboxed gapps and normal gapps, to be clear as i said, sandboxed gapps will not be the same as normal gapps provided within the system without sandboxing, the one graphene did was sandboxing it and this not only is less compatible than microg but you wont get any benefits like in ap purchases, etc, so either microg or a normal phone w gapps if you require apps that only work with it. i can test whatever apps you wanna use to make sure they work. or there is also this site https://plexus.techlore.tech/ to check which work or not or which work on graphene and not calyx, vice versa.

Do any Linux phones have access to Apple App Store or Android App Store?
You might like the Plexus tool to help you figure out which apps may or may not work on these "de-Googled" Android ROMs. However, I do not know how current is the information. I use CalyxOS, and I have found a lot of apps work for me.

I think this tool will help you.

I don't know where to ask this but is calyxos safe for bank payments?Are there any issues with the esim, NFC and safety net?
As far as app compatibility is concerned on a custom ROM, you can check out Techlore's [Plexus](https://plexus.techlore.tech) project (I don't know if that list has been updated in a while or not so try an app and see if it works for you). I have heard positive experiences from other users that PayPal and CashApp work just fine on CalyxOS.

Sandboxing Play apps?
You can check if your apps will work well with Microg or without any Google services here.

Just started degoogling. Anyone got some more tips?
Look at Plexus for app compatibility.

Popular XMPP App "Conversations" Removed from PlayStore by Google
Relevant copypasta:
Fellow humans, there are alternatives to Google and Apple! Your neck need not be under anyone's boot! You don't even need to give up any functionality:
Data service:
The simplest thing is to buy a prepaid SIM and top it off with cash. The lovely people over at /r/nocontract maintain a big spreadsheet so you can filter by various properties of the available contracts.
Another way to go is to pay for a postpaid plan with a virtual credit card (VCC) like at privacy.com. It won't be linked to your name at the telco, but of course privacy.com knows who you are. There is also Abine Blur, and some others.
Yet a third way to go, which is nascent, is buy an eSIM with crypto. You can also buy prepaid VCCs with crypto.
An interesting new choice is PGPP https://invisv.com/pgpp/ who rotate your IMSI and do some other cool stuff. It works by e-sims.
All these methods make you /pseudo/nymous, but obviously you're still identifiable by subscriber number and possibly IMEI, to put aside correlational things like your traffic profile. You can help this problem by routing everything through a VPN. Then you're pseudonymous but the cell carrier knows nothing about you other than that you use a VPN. Pay for the VPN with crypto. Of course now the VPN provider knows your traffic, but you're much more anonymous to them than you are to a telco. You make your choices. Defense in depth. Etc.
OS:
GrapheneOS: https://grapheneos.org/ Very much like Calyx, but extra-hardened and with no MicroG. No involvement with Google at all by default. You can make a secondary profile in which you install Google Play Services to set up an environment where you can run unprivileged Play services + whatever crapware you need that requires them. Unprivileged here means it's like any other app: if you don't give it access to your location, it won't know where you are. If you end the profile session when you leave, Play Services stops running and stops talking to Google.
CalyxOS: https://calyxos.org/ Privacy-respecting Android distribution that replaces Google spyware with MicroG, so you can have your cake and eat it too. Most everything will work as you're used to, but it does still talk to Google to make that happen.
LineageOS: https://lineageos.org/ The successor to CyanogenMod, will work with many different phones. More privacy and control than stock Android.
There are also many others: Sailfish, Replicant, e
Hardware:
CalyxOS and GrapheneOS run best on Pixels. The path of least resistance is to get one of these phones and run GrapheneOS with Google Services installed in one profile or other.
You could also buy a Librem 5 https://puri.sm/products/librem-5/ If privacy and security and hacking are really important to you.
Or a pinephone: https://www.pine64.org/pinephone/
Neither work very well by regular standards, but they're cool :-)

LineageOS is currently installed on 1.5M Android devices
It might be worth to switch to GrapheneOS if you have Pixel phones: https://grapheneos.org/
It is a more serious project than LineageOS in the sense that they take security very seriously and they take their development more professionally too. There are no disadvantages to using GrapheneOS compared to LineageOS.

Recommendations for an Android repair shop?
If it still powers up but just won't boot you could try installing https://grapheneos.org/.

Iphone Vs Android
On 4thgen Pixels and up you can install GrapheneOS which is a security and privacy focused Android build. It does not come with any Google services pre-installed but you can put them on. https://grapheneos.org/
