Like writing with a pen

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love these mechanical pencils. The lead is nice and thick and it writes so smooth like I am using a pen. I really like how the pencils come with extra lead and erasers since its back to school time and my kiddos will go through a lot of lead this year. The bright colors are just what the kids want in a pencil and they have a nice padding for your finger, for all day writing at school.

Bic Velocity Pencil is Smooth.............

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] At first glance I like them!! The colors a pretty and bright. You get five in a pack (who doesn't like that), and you get extra lead and erasers (I personally need those). I also like the fact that they put a rubber grip around the pencil so that it's comfortable for your fingers. I love the idea that your pencil doesn't look like everyone else's (boring yellow/gold wooden pencil). Why not stand out a bit with something pretty. The lead (I found ) writes smooth (no bumps or catches on the paper) which sometimes happens. Also the eraser does erase well, but I wouldn't mind if it did a little better at it's job. I personally would like it to be more clean. I will say the look is original for a pencil, only because I was asked more then once if I was using a pen or a pencil (the reaction was always a surprise when I said a pencil). Over all I like the Bic Velocity pencil and will continue to use it (since I have 5 to choose from!)

Smooth writing mechanical pencil!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These are not like the old mechanical pencils we all know. These new BIC Velocity Mechanical Pencils are super comfortable to hold and write very smoothly. My biggest complaints about a standard mechanical pencil is the lead can squeak as you are writing and it breaks really easily. The lead in these pencils glide across the paper. Everyone in my family has staked their claim to a pencil and uses them all the time! The design looks like a ball point pen and there is a lot of support for the lead and I haven't had it break as easily as the other designs. Can it break, well sure, it is a thin piece of lead, but the pencil design is awesome! I like that there is a cap over the eraser keeping it nice and inline with the pen design. The extra erasers and lead it comes with is an added bonus. This is by far my favorite mechanical pencil!

Straight to the Point

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have a 16yr old at home and she has had some issues with her hands growing up where she had to do certain things to strengthen her hands to write and over the years schools have used computers a lot so it wasn't always an issue, but high school changed that. She got to high school and computers are still important, but she has had to write notes and copy a lot more than she has in the past and we have tried to find writing utensils that aren't uncomfortable for her. She uses a lot of pens, but that is difficult at times like with math and she has opted to used erasable pens and some mechanical pencils. So these came and she really liked how easy it was to write, it lets your writing be clear and sharp and no dullness like other pencils, but it's also easy to hold and grip. The colors are nice, they're bright and will catch your attention. Not only that, but the pencils come with extra lead and erasers and we all know mechanical pencils and outlast their erasers EVERY TIME. That isn't a problem with this because you have extras. The pencils are nice and easy to use like any other pencil, but it has more of a grip and it's always sharp which is nice. The erasers are good as well because they work really easily and aren't like some where they erase most of your writing, but not all, these actually do a good job of erasing. I really like these and I know my 16yr old does too, these give her a little more ease when writing and will definitely be bought again.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have used many different mechanical pencils, but Bic Velocity is the best. The lead does not break easy and when you erase it does not leave anything behind. I even draw with them. They are awesome!

Best pencils says my son!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My son loves the mechanical pencils. They are the only thing he's been using at school. He's come home asking that I buy more for him to use. He likes how comfortable they are in his hands and it really cleans up his handwriting which has been a battle for years now. They are easy to refill and the eraser is durable enough to last through pretty hard usage. BIC is a trustworthy brand and I'm so glad they came out with these making my sons school writing so much easier.
