Kids love them

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Kids have really enjoyed using these and are excited to take them to school . The soft grip has made it easy for them to handle the pencil especially my 7 year old who still doesn't have the best grip . Easy to fill and love the colors . I was not a fan of mechanical pencils prior due the tip constantly breaking but the kids have not had this issue and really enjoy them.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My kids were both very excited to try out the new BIC Velocity Mechanical Pencils. Not only do they love the colors, but they love how easy they are to hold. I love how smooth they write, yet the lead doesn't break as easily as other brands do. The extra erasers and lead is nice too...one can never have enough erasers!!

Superior mechanical pencil!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The timing for this Buzz Campaign could not have been more perfect. It's nearly time to go back to school for both my kids and myself. When I buy school supplies for my kids I want them to be of the best quality so they can get the most use out of them. I will admit, that I have had some not-so-good experiences with mechanical pencils in the past, so I was a bit skeptical going into this. Each package of Bic Velocity comes with 5 pencils as well as a container of replacement lead (BONUS!). The pencil felt great in my hand, thanks to the comfort of the rubber grip. I noticed right away that when I pushed the eraser end to extract the lead, that the metal tip also retracts. Nice! Just the right amount of lead came out. I used the pencil, initially to do a crossword puzzle. This is a great test, since I made many mistakes and had to use the eraser often. The eraser comes with a plastic cap. I guess this nice for presentation's sake, but I was left trying to find a place to stash the cap when not in use. The cap is not necessary in my opinion. That being said, the pencil was very easy to write with, so snags, skips or breaks. The eraser erased my mistakes beautifully and completely...no smears or smudges. I like the thought of using Bic Velocity mechanical pencils at home because my kids are rough on pencils and are constantly breaking the lead. Bic Velocity solves this issue with just a click of the eraser end. Bic Velocity will be our go-to pencil!

Perfect for Back to School!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These pencils are not only super bright and colorful but they are the smoothest and nicest pencils I've ever written with. I have always been the kind of person that has to write with a super sharpened pencil- these lead pencils are awesome because clearly, you don't have to sharpen them. but the are smooth as silk and very easy to write with. The eraser is excellent too, erases any mistakes completely without leaving behind any smudges or marks.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These lead pencils are great and work wonderfully. They are easily refillable. The eraser works very well and doesn't smudge when used. The colors are bright and exciting.

Love the Velocity Pencils

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Day one, opening the package, my 12-year-old daughter took one out, wrote with it for a few minutes, then promptly started stealing all the good colors! Then I took them along to a weekend with my friends and they decided that they're 'good enough to steal', meaning if you borrow it to use for a second you would probably walk away with it! I guess I need to keep mine on a string when I go back to school in a few weeks. I love how dark they write, unlike many mechanical pencils that are so light you can barely read it. The grip fits my hand just right, very comfortable. Having a cover on the eraser is a great idea. I find lots of these erasers lying around my classroom, hopefully that will help hold them in better. My only suggestion would be to make the eraser longer but I like that extras are included.
