[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I absolutely think these are the best pencils out on the market. Velocity pencils write very smooth unlike other pencils out there. The pencils are easy to refill and the lead seems to last longer.

Awesome mechanical pencil!!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The back of the pencil is unremarkable; a clear plastic cap covers a small, white, barely functional eraser (it works about as well as most mechanical pencil erasers). This assembly can be pushed down to activate the lead advance mechanism. Just down from this is a plastic clip, functionally all right, with the pencil?s information written on it. Down from there, the body is clear and straight until it get to the rubberized grip section where it bulges then hourglasses, creating a nice place to rest your fingers. The little cap cone after this is clear, and has the metal tip floating inside so that is retracts when the lead is retracted, preventing the tip from getting caught on anything. Writing is fine. The lead is standard. It doesn?t break much, goes on smoothly enough and dark enough for school or office work. There is no advanced shock absorber or lead turning to prevent any damage, though, but at the price, that?s teetering on the edge of reason. The grip is comfortable enough to get one through writing or drawing without too much trouble. It doesn?t slip and isn?t too narrow. The overall construction is solid, and it feels like it won?t break in your hand. Overall, the Velocity is fine. It isn?t the best mechanical pencil ever, and it has no real features, but it?s solidly and relatively comfortably built. It is fairly inexpensive and comes with enough refills of erasers and lead to last the user for some time. As far as inexpensive options go for mechanical pencils, it?s a good one, but there?s nothing special about it.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I recieved the Bic Velocity Mechanical Pencils free from BzzAgent for giving my opinion. I had my 5 year old try them out. She loved them. She said its easy for her to grip and hold. I see while she is using them she is able to write neater than what she did before. I have since recommended , shared and purchased some for school. They are worth the price and having the coupons that came with them makes it even a better bargain.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love these pencils. Not only do they write smooth, (without making a squeaky sound) they erase very nicely. Everyone in my house loves them!! We will be watching a show and everybody has their pencils and writes words they hear on the tv! Great practice for our handwriting!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] these were amazing! I was surprised they were nothing like the regular mechanical pencils. They're like writing with a ballpoint pen but with pencil! So smooth and easy the lead doesn't break easily unlike other sites mechanical s.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I think these are by far my new favorite pencils . I haven't drawn in years and I went to town drawing with my kids! It was so much fun to be creative again and these pencils helped alot. With the amazing lead on it you can actually shade, make thick or thin lines and bonus you can always refill the pencil!

Love these pencils

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] When I first went to try out one of the mechanical pencils I thought it would be like all the other mechanical pencils I've used but the pencil was very smooth. The pencil grip was very soft and I love that the eraser has a cap on it. It's also a big bonus that the package comes with refills on the lead and even the erasers because I haven't seen mechanical pencils that have refills for the erasers. #Got it Free #BICVelocity

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] There was a lot of excitement when my kids received these pencils for free from Bic to test and review. The colorful barrels are attractive and helps to determine who each pencil belongs to. They were very impressed with how smooth it felt while writing. Also, the lines on the paper were bold with barely any pressure at all. No hand cramping from these pencils. I think we've found a winner for our school pencils this year!
