About BIC RLC11-BLUE Gel-ocity Retractable Gel Pen
Overall Feedback:
78% positive
78% praised the ink quality, but 22% found it prone to smudging
The ink is not very black, more of a dark gray. The paper color is visible underneath and the line has slightly darker edges.
81% praised the comfortable grip
The rubber grip makes it easy for me to hold and control the pen.
84% liked the durable tip, while 16% found it wore down
There is a removable dot at the tip of the pen to protect the tip.
77% praised the smudge-resistant ink, yet 23% didn't
The ink smears and does not dry effectively.
My hands get smudged with ink because the nibs of the pen are full of it.
When I use a highlighter over it, the ink smudges.
Gel pens smudge easily even after running my hand across the page a few seconds later. Also, going over it with a hi-liter will smear it all over.
83% appreciated the quick drying time, but 17% found it dried slowly
All the pens leak ink and take forever to dry, resulting in smudging of ink on my hands.
80% liked the wide range of colors, but 20% didn't
I have the full 24 color set and every pen works smoothly over a year later with very little use.
I am disappointed with the light blue and orange colors I bought as they do not write as smoothly as the other colors.
I find the purple color quite dark and the lime green too light to be taken seriously.
