[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love BIC Pencils, but the new BIC Velocity pencil is great. It writes evenly and I enjoy using it. I find myself making unnecessary additions to my to do list. The yellow traditional BIC mechanical pencils got a great upgrade with the fun new colors. It has a grip and feels substantial in your hand. I will be buying more of these. I shared them with my daughter but hid a few back for myself.

Back to School with BIC

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] For Elijah's first day at school (really only a half-day), he's been instructed to bring only a pencil. That pencil will be a BIC Velocity Mechanical Pencil. We like them because they come in bright colors, are easy to grip, and their sturdy lead writes smoothly. I also love how their provided eraser comes covered with a cap and erases very clean - because everybody makes mistakes, right? Elijah gets to pick from a choice of yellow, purple, orange or blue barrels (I keep the pink for myself!), and the pack of five pencils comes with extra leads and extra erasers. I deducted one star because for myself, I like a somewhat finer lead - what comes with the pencils is a full .7mm. If I can get pencils with .5mm, I'll be delighted. All in all, BIC Velocity Mechanical Pencils are perfect for heading back to school, or to work, or wherever you might want to do some writing yourself.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My kids love the Bic Velocity Mechanical Pencils. They have shared them with their friends, always a great thing to do. They have been using them for both homework and drawing. There has been alot more drawing going on in my house. Bic Velocity Mechanical Pencils have great erasers and good quality lead.

Smooth comfortable pencil with a clean erase

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] BIC Velocity Mechanical Pencils the perfect for heading into the new school year! No need for a pencil sharpener, like standard #2 pencils. Bright colors to please anyone. The pencil has a nice grip which made writing comfortable. The lead was smooth, no missed pencil strokes. When erasing it didn't leave lead smudges like other pencils do. Perfect for tests, note taking and drawing.

Loving these BIC mechanical pencils!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My child has dysgraphia and writing is a challenge. Traditional pencils have not been great, as the grip is too hard and the writing too light. These are much more comfortable to grip and he doesn't need to press so hard for it to show up on paper. There's also no problem with sharpening them and having the points break off. The eraser works really well also, and doesn't get all dark and gummy when it's used too often. We'll definitely be buying more!

Love it!!!!

[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!!

Strong for sure

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I really like these mechanical pencils. I don't like to reach for a pencil and find it needs to be sharpened, so I prefer the mechanical ones. I have been using these for a couple weeks now and I love them. I press pretty firmly when I write and I find that the stronger leads make a big difference. I've always had problems with lead breaking but not with these pencils. Definitely my new go to mechanical pencil.
