Uni-Ball One Gel Ink 0.5mm Ballpoint pen 10 Colors Set UMNS05-10C Japan import With Original Stylus Ballpoint Touch Pen

These pens are great. The colors are excellent, and the pen is a very good writing instrument. I previously bought "Pilot G2" color pens. They're awful. Some of the colors are good, some are ... unattractive. The Pilots also skip, gum up, and leave blobs of ink on the page.Just buy these.If you never bought these before, note that there is a tiny rubber seal on the end of each pen. Click the button to extend the tip and pull off the tiny rubber seal before using. Otherwise you'll think they're broken.

I LOVE these pens! Perfect for bullet journaling or in coloring books to add the depth and darkness of color where needed over colored pencils. These are wonderful pens!

Great pins people at my job just keep stealing them :)

I love Japanese pens like these. The design is unique and attractive. The white pen body with the varying color accents makes this pen set look really great. As for the actual writing, the colors all come out reasonably well and look vibrant and saturated. Are they more saturated than "normal" gel pens? I suppose so. If I compare them to other gel pens I've used they do stand out, but you'd have to have them side-by-side to really see the difference. For the most part, I've no problem writing with these pens. Some of the pens however write smoother than others. Whether this a difference in the ink, or just a manufacturer variance - I cannot say. But the majority of the pens I have work well, while the pink and the yellow are the "scratchy" ones and don't write as well as the others. By contrast, the blue, blue-black, and black are the smoothest of the bunch and seem to put down more ink than the others. Note: there is also a version of these pens in a 0.38 tip, and there is a set of 21 as well.

I love the uniball zen pens and I wanted more colors but they didn’t have them so I decided to try the uniball one pensI do have some issues with them like they’re very scratchy to write with unless you hold them at a specific angle. They do not smear and the colors are decent.If you only need a black pen I would highly recommend the uniball zento pens

These pens are not waterproof, but almost worse is that they skip ALOT. You have to press really hard to force them not to skip.Colors are good - but the skipping every other letter makes them intolerable.

I purchased this set of pens twice, the first time in 0.38 and then in 0.5. I am so disappointed in the quality and ability of these pens. They are not smooth to write with at all and when you do manage to write something coherent, it looks as if the pen is running out of ink. When I tried writing with the 0.38 pens and saw this I was like okay maybe 0.38 just isn't my style, it's too thin and too light so I gave the set to a friend. I repurchased 0.5 and had higher hopes but I'm left still disappointed and regretting that I ever purchased these pens. If I could recommend a brand of pen please go with Papermate Inkjoy or Sharpie pens; they are far superior to these.

Super fine scraps paper and runs out sometimes
