Pros & Cons

Update Pros and Cons

The AI used to provide these results are constantly improving. These results might change.

Pros

The quality is close to being very good (parts of the pen feel plasticy). The pencil has a smooth click-advance motion.

The cap snaps on so it doesn't fall off on either end. The cap fits snugly on the top of the pencil. Ergonomic with a top button to advance the lead.

Cons

Can't believe all the gushing reviews of this pencil. It's not great. Stick with the graph gear series.
