About uni-ball Jetstream RT Retractable Ballpoint Pens Fine Point
Overall Feedback:
80% positive
68% liked the vibrant ink colors, however 32% found them dull
The color of the inks is deep and rich, making it great for highlighting important parts of notes.
The ink color is subtle and resembles cheaper pens. I would prefer it to be darker than the G2's black.
80% appreciated the precise writing
I have a pen that writes smoothly without skipping, missing, or blotting.
I have experienced a smooth and satisfying feel while writing with the 1mm model.
As a lefty who writes cursive and usually writes small, the pen worked perfectly for me.
77% praised the ink quality, whereas 23% experienced skipping
I love these pens because the ink glides on paper without smudging.
The ink quality is solid black without being too thick or bleeding through the page.
The ink I use is of good quality and doesn't bleed, blob, or smudge.
I would not use any other pen because the quality of these pens is superb.

80% liked the grip comfort, however 20% found it slippery
The pen feels comfortable in my hand with the right grip and weight.
I have a pen with a fine tip, comfortable grip and it does not require much pressure while writing.
I found the pen comfortable to hold with a nice rubber grip area that is just right.
After years of using Pilot G-2, I find the rubber grip of this pen fat, awkward, and clumsy.
80% appreciated the durability, but 20% found it wore out quickly
The pen is durable and can withstand heat and wetness. Its shaft can repel damage that would harm a wild boar.
I prefer the 1mm metal parts model as it meets my standards of fit, finish, durability, and writing satisfaction.
The only downside of this pen is its longevity. I can keep it going for about 6 months before it starts to fall apart due to heavy daily usage.
The metal clip breaks off easily, leaving a sharp edge that can cause injury or tear clothing.
90% praised the quick-drying ink, while 10% noticed smudging
The ink takes up to a minute to dry and forms blobby pools.
I compared the drying time of the pen with a ballpoint pen and noticed that it does not dry instantly like a ballpoint pen.
