Can't offer thoughts on Claris but I did ride a bike with well sorted SRAM apex last night. On the short spin the changes were crisp and fast and the hoods are my preference for shape and comfort. Looks nice and clean too.
However, if he's looking at Apex, why not Shimano 105?
Most important is hood shape and how he gets on with that.

Apex for sure. Claris is 8-speed and low end shimano shifts like a limp noodle. Well sorted Apex honestly is only zero-loss away from first gen Red

Very quick question to help a friend choose between this and this...
Shimano Claris vs SRAM Apex?
