Why I Consider FlyDigi Apex 4 The Best Gaming Controller In The Market

Expert Verified By

I have thoroughly tested and reviewed the FlyDigi Apex 4, and I have to say, it really is a cut above the rest.

Story Highlight
  • The Flydigi Apex 4 offers adjustable thumbstick tension, adaptive triggers with multiple modes, and highly configurable software for personalized gaming experiences.
  • With tactile, mechanical face buttons and magnetic hall effect thumbsticks, the Apex 4 reduces the risk of stick drift and enhances comfort during long gaming sessions.
  • The controller also features a versatile vibration suite and an impressive battery life. It is a must-have for serious gamers.

If you are a serious gamer, you need a good controller for the comfort of your marathon gaming sessions. A suitable controller is a must for pinpoint precision and accuracy demanded by most games, like Valorant, Forza, The Witcher 3, etc.

After spending some time with the Flydigi Apex 4, I am convinced it is the best all-around controller on the market. Its features, build quality, and customization options surpass its competitors. Here’s why the Apex 4 is the top choice for gamers.

Excellent Design And Build Quality

The D-pad, shoulder buttons ,and 4 paddle buttons on the Flydigi Apex 4 are all tactile, with the face buttons being mechanical. The D-Pad feels clicky and responsive and doesn’t miss a beat during fast-paced action. This is a refreshing change from the spongy D-Pads I’ve used before, which often caused misclicks and frustration.

The Apex 4 features magnetic hall effect thumbstick modules, which are far less likely to develop stick drift. These sticks are adjustable in tension, ranging from extremely light to very strong, allowing for on-the-fly adjustments. Apex 4 has a removable cover held in place by magnets. It has a rubber grip which is very helpful when my hands get sweaty.

Additionally, you can tweak many settings directly on the controller by holding the home button for three seconds to bring up a menu, which is, for the most part, very nice to have on the controller.

It even has an idle screen where you can put a static image. Or you can put a small GIF in there as well. It’s nowhere near as feature-rich or complex as, say, the Turtle Beach Stealth Ultra, but the essential is there, and really, I wish every controller, at least elite ones, would have something like that. 

Adaptive Triggers Enhance Gaming Experience

The triggers on the Apex 4 have a hidden talent: adaptive feedback functionality similar to the PS5 DualSense. Flydigi allows you to set it up in the best way possible through the controller itself using a small screen. This screen offers six behaviors: Normal, Race, Sniper, Recoil, Trigger lock, and Vibration. You can select any mode that suits your preferences.

The adaptive triggers on the Apex 4 truly are its supreme feature. While playing Need For Speed, they adapted to my driving style, offering enough resistance to let me sense when I was about to lose traction. This extra layer of immersion is so refreshing– like gaining a new sense while playing.

The Apex 4 is at peak performance among game controllers, even outperforming the Dualsense Edge. I’m not saying everything about the Apex 4 is brand new. The shape certainly isn’t new; it’s basically an Xbox controller with an NOS tank in its undercarriage. But hey, if it isn’t broken, don’t fix it, right? While it is more expensive than most controllers, its value justifies the price.

The Best Controller Software Out There

Flydigi did a bang-up job with its software. When using the software, you have more configuration, and one is to have adaptive triggers react to the game itself. Besides that, the software opens up a world of possibilities, from activating gyro functions, which can be assigned to the mouse, left stick, or right stick, to addressing the curve of your sticks and triggers.

The software also allows you to set up quick switch profiles. It addresses RGB lighting and even macros up to 64 inputs. All this makes it very easy to customize your controller to your liking.

Vibration, Battery Life, And RGB

The vibration suite in the Apex 4 strikes a middle ground between haptic feedback and standard rumble force, offering accurate and quiet vibrations. I like this feature as I prefer a bit quieter environment while gaming. The controller also boasts a 1500mAh battery, providing substantial battery life.

The mechanical face buttons, using micro switch 2.0 technology, feel phenomenal and add to the overall high-quality feel of the controller. Cosmetically, the Apex 4 is gorgeous, with well-implemented RGB lighting that can be customized through the Flydigi Space application.

A Must-Have For Serious Gamers!

The Flydigi Apex 4 is the easiest to recommend controller at the $160 price point. It ticks every box for a pro controller, offering great customization and performance. While there are slight areas for improvement, such as more swappable thumbstick cap options and a longer warranty, the overall package is phenomenal. If you’re looking for the best all-around controller on the market, the Flydigi Apex 4 is it.
