Key points

Controllers can be used wired (via USB-C) or wirelessly with Bluetooth 5.0 or 2.4GHz USB dongle.

The support for supplementary features like the gyroscope, back buttons and haptic feedback varies between models, type of connection, and games/software.

Controller has trigger vibrations similar to Xbox's Impulse Trigger Vibration and DualSense's Adaptive Triggers.

Official software does not let use LCD screen as DualShock's lightbar.

Games with motion control support

For a list of games, see List of games that support tracked motion controllers in non-VR gameplay.

Number of games which natively support motion controls is limited and gyro support is still not a PC standard.

Games with LED lights support

Number of games which support LED lights is limited and LED lights support is still not a PC standard. There is no game which supports Flydigi Apex 3's LEDs natively.

Aurora, a third party, open source solution for handling RGB lighting is not supporting this controller.

Steam Input configuration is not allowing control of the LED lights on this controller.

reWASD application do not support LED lights yet, but work is in progress.

Games with Dual Vibration and Fine Tuned Control support

Controller has asymmetric vibrating motor with multiple speed levels enhances immersion in games. Linear Trigger buttons can provide performance in multiple stages. Alone with the Japanese ALPS rocker with metal ring and POM sheet combination for a more realistic real-time gaming experience.^[1]

There is no available application which translates Impulse Trigger Vibration or Adaptive Triggers signals into Apex triggers vibration.
