great pencils

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] They write very smoothly. I haven't had an issue with putting too much pressure and having the lead snap. My friend who actually has this issue with a lot of pencils doesn't have it with these either. The erasers on these pencils are pretty nice too. They don't seem to disintegrate into tiny specks like ones on cheaper mechanical pencils. They also don't make that horrible 'noise' that the pink erasers do either, which is great. One thing I do dislike about these though is that they get used up pretty quickly. I've been mainly only using the pink pencil and eraser is about halfway gone already and it's only been about 3 weeks since I got these. It's a little disappointing, but the pack does come with extra erasers. I'd definitely recommend getting a separate eraser though, like one of the the big rectangle ones. Speaking of erasers, one thing I don't understand is the caps. The erasers have caps on them. ...Why? The whole cap thing is why I had to get these in the first place. I think they're supposed to prevent having the lead get pushed out accidentally while you have the pencils in your bag or a case or something. However, upon trying out these pencils for the first time, I immediately lost two of the caps. They're clear so they are very difficult to find if you misplace them. Be careful

AMAZING!!!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received these pencils and I thought they were great for the kids since school is right around the corner, but after one use I have fallen in love with these pencils. They write very smoothly and if you are anything like me and grip your pencil very tight the extra cushioning really helps. I highly recommend these pencils for people in school or just on a regular basis.

AWESOME Mechanical Pencil that writes like a pen!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This BIC Velocity mechanical pencil looks like a pen at first glance. I have to say when writing with it, it seems to flow as smooth as a pen also. The comfort grip on the pencil is an added bonus. When you compare writing with a standard #2. well actually there is no comparison. I will never go back to writing with a regular pencil. My kids loves these. I have a child in high school that loves using pencils but hates the feel of a regular pencil. I brought these home and he asked for them all because he loved writing with them. He even said it made writing easier!! Thank you BzzAgent and BIC. #GetitFree #BIC #BzzAgentRules

Pretty good but the grip is horrible

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My daughter said that it is similar to other mechanical pencils. She does not like the grip and thinks it should be more cushiony. She said the eraser was better than the red erasers on the yellow pencils. She likes the look.

Not a big difference

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I will say, I did not notice a huge difference with this certain pencil. It seems to be just like all of the other mechanical pencils. My son is 12 and he did state that the eraser was very soft but other than that, there was no noticeable difference. He loved the fact that he was able to pick his own color, that made it fun! What may have been a little kid friendly" would maybe have been to add some lights or glow to it. Like maybe when you erase it makes the pencil light up...idk. Overall
