It really depends, Slovakia and Czech Republic usually have very modern banks. I can do everything through the app, I don’t remember the last time I had to go to an actual bank office. Apple Pay / Google Pay is almost everywhere, fast and easy bank-wire transfers, modern and secure apps with face/touch id...

Exactly - so I wouldn't expect N26 to have a particularly large customer base there (could be completely wrong though) if what they are offering isn't particulalry innovative by their standards.
All this seems really very biased.
I think Germany has instant transfers for a fee but I am not sure. There was never a need for it.
Czech has instant transfers already? Great. The CZ Bank I know charges 6 Euro per incomming EU Euro transaction.
I don't know if this is a recent thing, but my CZ bank charges nothing on incoming/outgoing SEPA payments (mbank).
Regarding instant transfers, already supported by many banks in CZ (not mbank though, so can't tell if there is a fee), see https://www.mesec.cz/aktuality/okamzite-platby-umi-prijimat-...
