About BIC Glide Bold Black Ballpoint Pens
Overall Feedback:
87% positive
87% appreciated the precise writing, yet 13% found it inconsistent
The pen easily glides on any paper surface and is very smooth.
The pen meets my minimum standards and then some, starting with its thicker lines of ink.
The pen is very smooth, making it challenging to keep lines exactly where I want them.
86% praised the ink quality, whereas 14% experienced skipping
The pen is a pleasure to write with and smoother than expensive German liquid-ink rollerball pens.
I love how the pen glides across the paper so fluidly.
The ink has a nice bold coverage and smooth flow, but takes a long time to dry and smears easily.
The pen's thick stream of ink can make handwriting messier for those who write hard or a bit messier.
78% liked the vibrant ink colors, however 22% found them dull
The black ink I use is darker than average ballpoint ink, but not as dark as gel pens.
The ink color is not as black as expected, it looks like a dark gray because it is a bit streaky.
80% liked the grip comfort
The full grip of the pen is comfortable and sets it apart from others.
The comfort grip of the pen is great and it does not cause cramps in my hands.
I love the convenience of a retractable/clicker pen and find the grip design comfortable to hold.
The pen has a rubber sleeve for comfortable gripping while writing.
83% appreciated the durability
I find the pen durable as it doesn't draw as fine lines as other pens.
69% praised the quick-drying ink, while 31% noticed smudging
The ink dries quickly, but it is important to allow necessary drying time to avoid smudging.
Every time I use the pen, the ink is almost dry, indicating that the drying time of the ink is too fast, making it difficult to use.
I have noticed that the ink takes longer to dry than a regular ballpoint pen.
The ink takes a long time to dry and is easy to smear, so I need to be cautious while using it.
