The colors are exactly as shown however it bleeds sometimes and makes blots so my writing can get chunky. I bought these in anticipation of using them to annotate my readings and make study sets since my go-to option of muji colored pens were not available. (They also have a longer than typical dry time for "quick dry gel pens" so don't use a highlighter on top for at least a couple of minutes. It would smudge and essentially make whatever you wrote illegible. Same goes for freshly printed paper.) I really hope they come out with a .38mm version though. Overall 10/10 nice deal 8/10 would recommend 9/10 would buy again.
They write smoothly and easily each time I’ve used them. I like the rich blue color of the ink and the overall size and feel of the barrel. I do with the ink was more water resistant it runs easily if moisture is introduced in any way whatsoever
The pens write well; the ink is deep and dark for a plastic pen it's one of the sturdiest I have owned. I have big hands and the sturdy qualities of the Tru Red pens make it comfortable and easy for me to write with. I love these pens...
