Best pen for everyday use.

As someone who takes a lot of notes while they play video games, this pen goes above and beyond for notebook writing and just every day use.I need to highlight certain things I write down every morning at my job. It dries super fast and never smudges. Even under a super wet highlighter.It's comfortable to hold, they're pretty cheap, they're super smooth, and almost never skip on that first letter when you start writing.

Best Pens I've ever used!

These glide over the paper, I had to press hard to write on others. It prevents hand strain and lets me write for longer. I've written 30 pages in a day with these and felt fine.

WRITE YOUR GROCERY LISTS WITH THESE

THESE PENS ARE THE BEST. I CAN'T FIND THEM IN STORES ANYMORE. I USE ONE AT A TIME GENERALLY. IF YOU DROP THEM ONTO A HARD SURFACE, SOMETIMES THE SPRING GETS MESSED UP SOMEHOW AND IT WON'T CLICK PROPERLY ANYMORE AND IT'S VERY ANNOYING TO USE. MINUS A STAR. BUT THEY WRITE LIKE ICE SKATES ON A CLOUD. BUY THE PENS.UPDATE 4/3/18:LISTEN LISTEN LISTEN LISTEN LISTEN LISTEN LISTEN LISTEN LISTEN. MY NEWEST BATCH OF PENS SEEMS TO BE BETTER CRAFTED. I HAVE MUCH MORE EXPERIENCE DROPPING THESE ONTO CONCRETE NOW, AND I HAVEN'T HAD ANY ISSUES WITH THE SPRING MESSING UP THE CLICKY FUNCTION. UNI-BALL MUST HAVE READ MY REVIEW AND ADJUSTED THEIR MANUFACTURING SPECS. THAT TAKES SOME INTEGRITY RIGHT THERE - GREAT COMPANY, 5/5. I DON'T KNOW IF THEIR PENS ARE FAIR TRADE THOUGH, SO I CAN'T SPEAK TO THE ETHICAL TREATMENT OR LACK THEREOF FOR THEIR CHINA SWEATSHOP EMPLOYEES. BUT I'VE BEEN ASSURED BY CUSTOMER SERVICE THAT NO, THESE ARE NOT EDIBLE. DO NOT INGEST THE PENS.BUT LISTEN. DO YOU ENJOY WRITING LIKE THE GODS? THEN BUY THE PENS. DO YOU WANNA BE A BALLER? GET THE PENS. ONLY TEENAGE PRE-TEEN 5 YEAR OLD GIRLS USE GILLETTE PENS. BE A BALLER, NOT A GELLER.GOOD PENS, DO RECOMMEND. 5/5.UPDATE 3/11/20:HELLO FRIENDS, HAVE UPDATE AGAIN. I STILL USE THESE PENS. THEY'RE ELITE, LIKE ME AND MY COLLEAGUES. IN FACT, I RECEIVE MANY COMPLIMENTS FOR MY PENS WHEN I LET MY FELLOW SENATORS AND CONGRESSMEN (CONGRESSWOMEN?) - CONGRESSPEOPLE BORROW MY PENS TO SIGN LEGISLATION. MY PENS ARE THE TALK OF CAPITOL HILL. I STILL HAVE NOT EATEN ONE YET.BE AN ELITE, NOT A DEADBEAT. USE THE PENS.UPDATE 2/27/25:HELLO MY DEAR ONES, I HAVE ANOTHER UPDATE ON THE PENS. YES I STILL USE THEM, VERY MUCH SO. BUT IN AN INCREASINGLY DIGITAL AGE, ONE FINDS THAT THEY USE ANALOG PENS LESS AND LESS FREQUENTLY. MY NOTES ARE INCREASINGLY DIGITIZED THESE DAYS. WHEREFORE THE PURPOSE OF PHYSICAL PENS LIKE THESE?I'LL TELL YOU. THESE PENS ARE TRULY EXCELLENT FOR TWIRLING AND FIDGETING WITH. I HAVE A SUPPLY OF THESE STRATEGICALLY DISPERSED THROUGHOUT VARIOUS PLACES IN MY HOME AND VEHICLES, NOT FOR WRITING ANYMORE, BUT FOR FIDGETING AND TWIRLING. THEY ARE BALANCED, THE RUBBER EXTERIOR PROVIDES AMPLE GRIP, THE WEIGHT IS PERFECT (NOT TOO LIGHT, NOT TOO HEAVY), AND THE SIZE AND FORM FACTOR ARE IDEAL FOR A GOOD FINGER TWIRL. I HAVE A PEN IN THE NIGHTSTAND NEAR WHERE I OFTEN READ, FOR PEN-TWIRLING AND READING GO HAND-IN-HAND BEAUTIFULLY. I HAVE TWO IN THE MINIVAN, AND TWO MORE IN MY 2000 LINCOLN TOWNCAR EXECUTIVE TRIM, BECAUSE PEN-TWIRLING IS SO GOOD IN THE CAR WHILE DRIVING. IT REALLY RELAXES THE BODY AND MIND. LET'S SEE, WHERE ELSE? ON MY WORK DESK, ON THE ENDTABLE NEAR MY ARMCHAIR FOR TV VIEWING AND READING AND SUCH, AND I DO THINK THAT'S ABOUT IT!I'D SAY 99% OF MY USAGE FROM THESE PENS ARE FROM TWIRLING AND FIDGETING NOW. BUT THAT 1% OF ACTUAL WRITING PEN TO PAPER IS STILL AS GOOD AS EVER. BUT REALLY, BUY THESE BECAUSE THEY ARE THE BEST FIDGET-PEN. WELL, PROBABLY MAYBE NOT - I HAVEN'T TRIED ALL THE PENS TO BE ABLE TO SAY THAT, BUT THEY ARE COMPLETELY SATISFACTORY FOR ME AND THUS END THE SEARCH FOR A PERFECT FIDGET PEN.STILL 5/5 NO DOUBT NO DOUBT, TWIRL THE PENS

Great pen, too much hype

Was looking for a quick drying, quality pen for work and found many recommendations for this pen. They work well, dry quickly and write smoothly. They also fit comfortable in the hand. They are not superior to other pens though. Comparable to a Pilot G2 or Inkjoy gel

Best thin tip pens available

The uni-bal jetstream fine point pens are the best pens I have used by far.Things I look for in a disposable pen:1) Fine tip (at least <0.7mm). I have to write a ton of stuff in small forms. I like to write in tiny letters.2) No smear3) Long lasting ink cartridgeAs I was researching for a good pen, all these terms "gel" "ink" "roller ball" "ball-point" were all extremely confusing. I thought gel was gel, and ink was ink. Ink smears and bleeds, and gel is supposed to be more viscous and thick (so it wouldn't smear). But now these companies advertise oddly and say they have non-smearing ink. Then I thought the ball point was synonomous with gel ink pens, and roller balls with ink...but the more I tried looking into it, the more I got confused...so in my review I'll explain it with my own made up words. And the 4 pens I have used recently include:- Pilot (0.38mm) Ultra Fine point black gel ink pen- Pilot (0.5mm) Extra Fine point black gel ink pen- Pilot (0.7mm) Fine point black gel ink pen- Uni-ball Jetstream Fine point roller ball pensPilot (0.38mm) ultra fine point:-Pros:1) Finest tip of all the pens. I can write very tiny and fill out forms with more words. However, too small letters can become illegible because there is still a minor amount of smear-Cons:1) Ink is watery and smears. But dries quicker than other pilot pen's because the tip is so thin that not much ink is spread onto the paper.2) Pen tip is so thin that it breaks easily. I had half my pen tips break on me. Deal breaker.Pilot (0.5mm) Extra fine tip:Pros:1) See above (0.38mm). Fine tip, but not as fine as the 0.38mmCons:1) Because the tip isn't as fine as the 0.38mm, there is more ink spread, and more smearing.Pilot (0.7mm) Fine tipPros: NoneCons:1) See above: Ink is too watery and smear-y. Don't even bother with this inky/smeary pen.Uni-Ball Jetstream Fine PointPros:1) Ink is more "gel-y", not watery. This is nicer in so many ways. First the gel rarely smears. 2nd the gel lasts much longer in these pens than the pilot pens (less replacement).2) despite being 0.7mm, I can still end up writing as many words in the same space as the 0.38mm, simply because there is no smear.Cons: NoneConclusion: Buy Uniball Jetstream Pens (0.7mm) only.
