The Zebra Clip-on Multi ballpoint pen includes 4 colors: Black, Red, Green, Blue, plus a .5 mm pencil. The wide body and rubber grip make it very comfortable to hold. All of that is great but what really makes this pen special is the ease of writing with it. The inks flow smoothly and evenly without skips or blobs. You can even get refills! It’s the best writing instrument I’ve ever used, and that includes some $40+ Faber and Diplomat pens. I’ve been using them for over 10 years, and I always keep a spare handy in case I’ve misplaced the current one. (It happens.) The biggest drawback is the eraser inside the little cap on top: as it wears down, there’s no way to keep pushing it up. That’s a very minor problem for me, since I keep an inexpensive retracting eraser nearby. Another minor thing as that there’s no storage for spare pencil leads. You have to feed in a new lead when the current one isn’t long enough to write with, but that’s also a very minor issue for me. It’s just a joy to write with!

So I bought the 4-Colored .77mm Fine point BIC pen and the Zebra B4SA1. I bought both because I read on Amazon (based on customer comments) that both pens worked wonderfully. As a science major and long-time old school note taker (non-typist), professors put so much info in their lectures that when I only use one color my eyes can miss crucial info, especially when professors zoom through the lectures so fast that my notes look so messy!I highly recommend this pen because compared to the BIC the Zebra has EVERYTHING you need when you need/want to take organized notes. Zebra VS BIC[COLORS]Zebra: black, red, blue, green, and whaaaaat?! gray (jk, pencil lead, lol)BIC: black, red blue, and green[GRIP COMFORT]Zebra: When I first looked at the picture, I thought I would have a difficult time writing with the pen width being fatter than the BIC (since it also comes with a mechanical pencil). NOT AT ALL! This pen is plastic made but the gripping area has a gray cushion that helps writing feel super comfortable for your wrist. I have sweaty palms so the cushion totally sold me! The type of ball-point tip is so smooth that you don't have to grip so hard unto the pen when writing.BIC: The BIC has no cushion on the grip and the whole pen is plastic orange. It's nice but with sweaty palms my hand slips when I write, so I have to grip harder. =([COLOR TRANSITIONING]Zebra: two word.... ZEBRA FAST! You can use your index finger to transition to a different color so smoothly.BIC: Gotta use your thumb..so takes a bit more time transitioning between colors.*They are both ball point pens.-----------------------------------------------Overall in my opinion zebra is my ideal pen for note taking. Yeah, I sound crazy being meticulous about these pens but hey this product made me a happy college student. ^___^

I've been using this pen for 5 years throughout middle and high school, and I plan to take it with me to college. I mostly use the pencil, but the pen colors are convenient for when you have to color-code something or draw up a quick diagram. Would be 5 stars if it weren't for its sorry excuse of an eraser, which doesn't work well and doesn't last long. I've become accustomed to using a separate pencil eraser whenever I write. While this is a bit annoying, it's definitely not a deal breaker for me and this will continue to be my pen/pencil of choice.

i was amazed when i saw it online and needed to have it for my class. its an easier way of switching colors in an instant. the only down side so far is that switching colors might get a little annoying or might cause a disturbance. the pen comes with 4 colors, red blue green and black which all work well. the led pencil is a 0.5 led and might take a quick minute to figure out how it might work. it was an eraser on the top of the pen that shields it with a hard plastic cap.To put more led into it you must unscrew the rubber finger comforter and expose all the pen and pencil tips. then gently remove the metallic and white plastic tip of the led pencil and hold the pen upside down and insert a couple led sticks in there and put the metal and plastic tip and then screw the rubber part on again and your done.to make the led come out; you must find the pen holder clip, thats going to the thing that brings the led out. don't be shy when you press it down a bit more... it will click and the led should come out.and finally, this pen might occasionally might get stuck, so just start clicking out the "not so stuck colors" one by one in either direction (clock counter clock) and they should loosen up and work as its supposed to.PS: i know its "lead" but you understand...

I bring a Moleskine notebook with me everywhere I go to take notes, jot down ideas or to make designs and sketches. The biggest problem I was running into was that often times when I was doodling or wanted to write things that could be erased, I would have to search franticly for a pencil since most of the time I was using a pen.I started looking for an option that had both a pen and a pencil that could be swapped out instantaneously. When I found this pen I was pleasantly surprised.Not only did it have the pencil function i needed, but it also had a black, green, and blue pen to go along with it! I didn't imagine this pen could actually hold up or function well though with my past experience with multifunctional pens.I gave it a shot though and I can safely say this was the best purchase I have made in a long time! It is so convenient and I feel like I've been a lot more productive in my note taking since I get to use multiple colors to highlight different notes which makes it stand out more.Overall really highly recommend this pen to anyone who may ever need a pen and pencil at the same time!
