Pros

Ink flows flawlessly, without any skips or smudges. Ink dries almost instantly, allowing me to work efficiently and without any interruptions.

The design of the pen is sleek and stylish. I'm amazed at how effortlessly i can write with this pen, making my handwriting look neater and more legible. I am a lefty and am very lucky in general about how a pen “feels”.

The energel-x pen glides effortlessly across the paper, delivering smooth and consistent lines. This 3-pack is a great value! I love this pen for every day work that’s not in the icd-10 lol. The price is the same as buying refills for fancier energels... Read More

They write so smoothly, it's a pleasure to use them. Recommend for smooth writing and perfect line thickness - not too thick or thin. Great for school, office or journaling.

Review process appears to be laughable. The pastel barrel implies that the ink is pastel. All of the pens leak at varying speeds.

It is a lot cheaper than therapy!

Shipping

Wow, the pens were delivered the next day.

Packaging/appearance

I'm not fond of cheap, careless packaging.

The box was smashed and the pens were all loose.

Competitiveness

I'm always in search of the best smooth gel pens so far i haven't found any that's better than these so far these are the best out there.

7 pens from other brands sitting around, so i tried the energel cartridge in those tubes and found them to be perfectly compatible.

I have tried many brands, ballpoint, gel, liquid ink, etc.
