Helps my son!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This might just be the perfect mechanical pencil! My son has dysgraphia and is unable to write well. He did his homework tonight with one of these pencils and it's the best handwriting I have ever seen! He said the grip really helped, unlike all of the other grips and pencils we have tried (and there have been many). I am just shocked and I will happily continue to buy these if his handwriting can be this good! It was great to see him so proud of his writing!

BIC is tops in pencils!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received the BIC Velocity Mechanical Pencils free for review. My daughter absolutely loves the colors and ease of use for these pencils. It is nice that they also include refills as well. I notice that they are slightly stronger than other mechanical pencils when writing, which for a school student is key.

Well Used And Well Loved!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I'm a HUGE mechanical pencil fan, and BIC is always my favorite! These BIC Velocity Mechanical Pencils are no exception! As a person who works in accounting, I'm ALWAYS looking for a good pencil! I also love puzzle books, and will only do them in pencil so I can erase! These pencils write great, but I hate the cap! Every time I'd turn my pencil over to erase, there was that darn cap on it! Easy fix?? THROW THE CAP AWAY! They fit well in my hand and have a built in pencil grip, but they feel slightly larger than a normal pencil and definitely larger than any other BIC pencils I've used. I'm not sure why, since there is no more lead in them than other BICs. As an accounting person, I love that these pencils come with additional lead. There seems to be 3 pieces of lead in the pencils already, and you get a pack with 12 additional sticks of lead. As a a parent... I hate that these pencils come with additional lead... It's just more for my kids to play with! :) I'll have to look into the price of these pencils to see if they're worth me switching from the basic BICs to these new BIC Velocity, but if the price is similar, I'd definitely consider switching! Thanks, BIC and BzzAgent! #GotItFree #BICKid

Loving to write with my Bic Velocity Pencil!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] WOW! you'd think how can a mechincal pencil be different from others right?Bic Velocity writes so smooth and erases with ease. I use mechanicl pencils for work and personal use, this is one that I really have no issues with. The grip at the end of the pencil is comfortable, fits great in my fingers, it is light and as I stated above its smooth writing almost gliding across the page. I let my son have 1 (yes only 1) he LOVES this pencil. When he made a mistake the eraser took all of the lead off the page. When he writes he doesnt have the lead breakage like he has with other mechanicl pencils. We will be adding Bic Velocity pencils to our school supply shopping list this year!

Bic Velocity why it's the better choice
on July 27, 2016
Posted by: fourblocks
from Lawrenceburg, IN
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I did a comparison between Bic Velocity, xtra-comfort and xtra-percision. At first visually the Bic Velocity stand out because of the brighter colors and how the pencil it's self is a bit larger and sorta cool with the clear plastic around a colored center. Next comfort in writing, the Velocity wins again, the larger grips have little notches that help you hold the pencil more comfortably and the notches help you hold it at an angle that makes writing neater (I'm a 4th grade teachers assistant so this notch is a plus) lastly the actual writing of the pencil, the Velocity and comfort are both .7 lead and they wrote the same and the precision takes a .5 lead and I found that the writing was a little lighter in color.

Bright, bold and with replaceable pieces? Thank you!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Why had someone never thought to provide replaceable erasers before? When I opened the package I thought- DUH! I mean seriously who doesn't go through their erasers faster than the pencil refills? I love that mechanical pencils feel like a pen in your hand but write like a pencil so you can easily correct any mistakes. This is the perfect package for back to school!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These pencils not only come in fun vibrant colors, but they are amazing to write with as well. My handwriting has never looked better. I got them in the mail and my boys grabbed them up as fast as they could and couldn't wait to start drawing and writing with them. Boy do they love mechanical pencils

BIC Velocity Mechanical Pencils

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] BIC Velocity Mechanical Pencils are wonderful. They have a nice comfortable grip and write well. I have had issues with other mechanical pencil erasers but the eraser on these pencils worked very well. If you are in the market for mechanical pencils and don't want to spend a fortune, these are the ones for you!
