ABEIER Premium 12 Gel Ink Pens, Fine Point Pens Ballpoint Pen 0.5mm for Japanese Office Stationery Supply,Pack for XSG

Good colours, pigmented, smooth writing

Really good quality pens that write well. Range of colours is good and the ink seems to dry quickly

Solid pen. Does what it needs to do. But if you are hoping to buy a replacement for Muji 0.5mm gel pens, this isn't it. That being said, these are still good pens.

I bought these for my sister as she's been looking for some new gel pens and she now uses them all time, they're her favourite pens. They don't go through even thin paper at all, my sister also uses them to annotate books and they've never smudged or gone through to the next page. They write so smoothly, look great on the paper, are not blotchy, don't go through even thin paper and are comfortable to hold. Would definitely recommend and will be buying more.

I was looking for a set of pens to replace my original Japanese ones. This set was good value so decided to give them a go. They arrived promptly and I am pleasantly surprised. There are many colours to choose from and the ink flows easily though they are perhaps more runny so you need to wait a few more seconds for the ink to dry. The colours are a little vivid (think highlighters), but the basic black, blue, red and green are good. Would recommend for the value for money

I’ve taken to using colouring books as a means of meditation as you need to be present for this activity. Something I struggle with. These are good pens.

Lovely colours, nice writing. I loved them when I first got them. But unfortunately they're finishing so quickly I couldn't believe it. I started with the pink one and used it for note taking,just one or two pages a few days a week, and it didn't even last 2 weeks. Quite disappointing.

In terms of ease of writing and ink, these are my favourites by far- though, it is worth noting that the colours indicated do not completely reflect the ink. For example, in this set, I would not be able to tell two of the “pinks” apart, and the baby pink comes out more a magenta. They have had a few bubbles in the ink, where it stopped working and i had to scribble a bit to sort it, but that is true of any gel pen really. The longevity is great though! If i were to compare these with my old fine decorative pens - uni emott fine 0.4 - I’d say these win in every regard. Worth the price.
