I'm a lefty overwriter and I have one in purple 0.7. Used it once and never touched it again. Smear-city. You can try it for your self if you want. Just use it with a rougher paper that absorbs ink fast.
@@E_l_l_i_e Really? You make have gotten a defective product, if you look at any of their reviews you can see these being praised by hundreds of lefties. These pens are literally famous for their fast drying ink, so again, you may have gotten a defective product.
I’ve written with these for nearly two years now and the biggest difference between the needle and regular (that I have found) is that the normal tip has more “spluge” after a lot of use. The needle tip doesn’t seem to bleed or leak or leave that little drop of ink. But both are my favorite pens.
Needle tip vs reg tip is totally preference. I LOVE needle tip and these are my absolute favorite pens. I have shown multiple people these pens and they have become their #1 favorite pen now as well!
I normally CANNOT stand gel pens. I actually purchased a purple one by accident thinking it was ball point for whatever brain fart I was having that day. Anyway, I FELL IN LOVE WITH THEM!! And use virtually nothing else to write with, especially after I found out that they were refillable and in ALL of the colors they offer. They now sell them in an alloy barrel and I have that collection on its entirety as well. And the pigment of the colors....STUNNING...PERFECTION! At least for me.
I love the pentel energel 1.0mm refill because I love writing in bold lines and its my favorite. However I do not use an energel body anymore. I put my refills in a Uni Jetstream Alpha Gel pen for an even more comfortable grip.
I use the bright blue as my every day pen, but I have a big soft spot for the orange pen, too. I pull out the orange when I need to wake up but don't want more caffeine.
you know, I see so many comments from people who love these pens here. It makes me wonder why they don't get talked about so much (at least from what i've seen) in the planner community!
I don't think you've done a review on the uniball signo gel pen series. I'd really like to see how they compare to the other gel pens - especially the 207 and 207 micro versions :)
I'm curious about the uniball signs ones also, it and the Amazon basics gel pens, and the friction black pens are the only ones I like so far. I'm thinking I might give these a try tho cause omg the colors!!
Hi Cindy! The difference between needle tip and metal tip that I really love is that needle tip writes finer and dries much MUCH faster! I use the metal tip when I need bolder look:)
Great video! Do you have any videos showing how to check the condition of gel pen tip? The reason for this unusual question is I purchased a set of gel pens. Some worked fine for a while then became scratchy. Others were rather scratchy from new. Should the pen tip last a while or is this a common occurrence. Any tips or pointers (no pun intended) would be greatly appreciated.😁
I use these for work. Needle tip purple with white barrel. I hoard them and will straight up walk into someone's office if they are straight up shady and thieve it!
Cindy Guentert-Baldo But of course. I totter down the hall in my heels so I don't have to chase them all over the hospital. 🤣🤣 I may resort to throwing paperclips occasionally.
I like the deep tone of black they have, specially the bold 1.0 is amazing and so soft even though I don't use it all the time. Have you done a review on the Pilot Precise 7 and 5 and Pilot Precise RT 7 and 5 as well? I think they're among the best for writing!
I'm pretty certain the finale will be at the end of October, but there will be a couple of lives leading into it. I'll have the firm dates up at the beginning of the month!
i would love a needle tip cause i feel like there's more control and it allows me not to write big easier i write with .3 though and needle tips all day every day hahahah lol
hello, can i ask the pentel pens you got that has the normal tip and not the niddle does the tip has that wiggle room when you write? coase other pens i use i hate the wiggle room they have on the tip and i never use them i only use pens with a cap but the needle 0,5 Pentel has zero wiggle on the writing and i love it was wondering if the non-needle ones is the same like zero wiggle room?
Wow I really love how you did the review . Can you do it again and do a highlighter test 😂 I bought sooo many pens and I can’t seem to find the right pen set . I need colorful , smooth glid, comfortable grip, non smudge even when highlighted, vibrant colors:)
What about just comparing to Target dollar spot gel pens? I just got a three pack that were Halloween colors (purple, orange, neon green) and they're amazing! I've gotten black from there too. Price point good, not refillable, they've got those feet on the caps too keep them from rolling, write smooth, various colors, etc
I recently found your channel through my new obsession with hand lettering. Thank you so very much for keeping all your reviews so real. Greatly appreciate all the work you do. Your humor brings me so much laughter...ribbed for her pleasure...but doesn't leave an impression on my callus...hahahaha.
I've had several of the colored pens, and, they're a pleasure to write with, however, without fail, they leak in my pen cup or backpack, especially the purple pens,. It sucks. I love purple pens.
These are my favorites for everyday use! I literally use the 1.0 metal tip every. single. day. I even have to put my name on it to keep others from stealing it (which is when the refills are very nice to have). The standard blue (not the bright blue color one) is a really nice dark blue too.
Your humor is immaculate. Love it. Subscribed. Energel is honestly the best pen formula I have ever used even 5 years on from this video. Smooth, precise, and pigmented. To answer your question (even though this video is 5 years old) I prefer needle tips over standard pen tips because the needle tips allow for more accuracy. Downside is that they are more fragile, but I don't write hard anyway.
The Juice pen is a WONDERFUL pen. One of my favorites. The EnerGel is tops with me, but I really like the Juice too. They’re both excellent but in different ways. So just treat yourself and get both!
I love your video, I have been doing SO much research into fast drying pens that won’t smudge and will look a little okay after lefty use. No one really thinks about lefties so I have to keep thinking “okay those stationery profucts are not perfect for righties, they really won’t be perfect for lefties”. I wanted to ask a question, Is there a different between the Pentel EnerGel liquid and the Pentel EnerGel-X?
These are my favorite work pens! They have so many different barrel options, and the colors are gorgeous! They also do have a standard blue color, and my personal favorite, blue-black 😍 you can find them on sale a lot so that makes them more affordable 🙃
I like the way the Medium Metal tip writes. I've been using these pens for a long time. Purple being my favorite as in writes MORE smoothly, the needle dick writes scratchy over time, SUCKS!
Everything is overpriced here. I WILL double check tho, cuz I was going off of the website because I couldn't find my receipt. I might have been wrong.
Over 20 years ago, I had an awful experience trying to fill out a form with a Pentel rollerball pen and hadn't touched another one of their pens until the other day. I've been hearing how good these are, so I tried an EnerGel. I really like it and use it along with my Unis and Pilots. Well done, Pentel!
Gonna be honest, never knew pen reviews even existed. Let alone that they'd be entertaining videos.
“...is the needle d*ck, sorry needle tip”
Did anyone else hear this??
Gclimaco Gclimaco she literally wrote needle dick 7:01
Gclimaco Gclimaco that’s what I think with my pilot hi tecpoint
I heard it too! Not crazy!
Maya Papaya I'm pretty sure it was deliberate. A minute or so before that she talked about hearing it in 80s movies.
wh a t
Wait, what they have colors too? Here I have been using black only. I am a lefty and its awesome.
Rebecca Cook do you like gel pens?

@@katto1937 nope, not defective. Actually it writes smoothly. But the ink smears as most 0.7 mm pens do.

I've thought because it was easier to write smaller fonts with needle?

Please review the pentel energel style pen with a twist mechanism.
"Only slight indentation on my callus, which is nice" 🤣😂🤣
that poor callus gets the crap kicked out of it
I don't think you've done a review on the uniball signo gel pen series. I'd really like to see how they compare to the other gel pens - especially the 207 and 207 micro versions :)
I plan to, I have a few of the different ones I think. I need to investigate my stash.
Awesome! Will look forwards to that :D

I’ll never look at a needle point the same.. 😂
Yes!!! I’ve seen these around when I’ve been searching for pens but didn’t research reviews so I’m so fricking glad you’ve done this video!
Loved this review. Which gel color pens would you pick if you were a college student in a budget?
Hi Cindy! The difference between needle tip and metal tip that I really love is that needle tip writes finer and dries much MUCH faster! I use the metal tip when I need bolder look:)
This is my favorite purple pen. I love the needle tip in 05 but don't drop it...
what happens if you drop it? does it leak?
The tip "broke" it glopped ink and then wrote scratchy, broke my heart a little bit. Good thing I had spare refills ready :)
LifeintheMitten thinks for telling me I never drop it... guys listen to her and me
Great video! Do you have any videos showing how to check the condition of gel pen tip?

I have such anxiety that I will miss the thunderdome! Is there a firm date yet?
I can't wait!
I'm pretty certain the finale will be at the end of October, but there will be a couple of lives leading into it. I'll have the firm dates up at the beginning of the month!
I freaking LOVE these pens!! They even have a "cheap" version at the Dollar Tree in the pink, blue, and purple inks.
I've been eyeballing all the gel pens at my dollar store wondering if I should grab some for the thunderdome. 🤔
You can also buy just the refills (including needle tip ones) at staples and office stores!!! It's AWESOME
that IS awesome, thank you!
You should test these pens but the 0.5 and the 0.3. I stole two of these pens from my teacher and the red is my favorite
Hi, Julie! So that's what happened to my pen. See you in class.
@@E_l_l_i_e julia you ded
Are the pens like slippery? If not then I'll probably buy them :)

Do a video of zebra Jimmie gel rollerball pens in all the colors
Check out the sharpie s gel pens in different colors and do a video review of them
What is gel pen thunder dome?

I think I might do a specific video on dollar spot and dollar tree pens. I've been eyeballing those as well. Thank you!
I love these pens! I keep the black attached to my travelers notebook for daily use! I got mine off of Jetpens!
These are my most favorite pens EVER!
Oh you gotta pick up all the colors there is a 14 pack and the colors are so pretty!

My favorite pens!! The Purple one wins!!
I love these pens! I didn't know they came in different colors! I might go get a pack. Thanks Cindy!
you're so welcome!
That purple, though... SO pretty!
I've had several of the colored pens, and, they're a pleasure to write with, however, without fail, they leak in my pen cup or backpack, especially the purple pens,. It sucks. I love purple pens.
I love me some energel needle point tip pens! Ty.
you're so welcome!
Needle tip is good for stencils
oh that's a GREAT idea!
I love those pens! I use them as my work pens and they are nice and smooth.
soooooo smooth
That's absolutely true! Pentel EnerGel pens are ideal for left-handed writers, but they're also great for right-handed writers too.😊
You are hilarious. I am happy I found you on UA-cam!
i'm happy you found me too!

Ugh I’m debating between getting these or pilot juice pens. I’m in high school and need them for not me taking. What would you recommend?
The Juice pen is a WONDERFUL pen. One of my favorites. The EnerGel is tops with me, but I really like the Juice too. They’re both excellent but in different ways. So just treat yourself and get both!
I love your video, I have been doing SO much research into fast drying pens that won’t smudge and will look a little okay after lefty use.

I wanted to ask a question,
Is there a different between the Pentel EnerGel liquid and the Pentel EnerGel-X?
Different body but same ink
I LOVE these pens. I use all the colors everyday at work
I was so surprised with how much I liked them!
I've tried theses pens didn't like them. The ink was to think for me and I like a smaller tip size.
I bought some a few weeks ago and I thought to myself, "Self, Cindy would like these pens."
You know me so well ;-)
Dee Pierce nice dog and you know me well too
Bl77V falls apart and can't replace
I like your style. Liked the vid and subscribed. Nice review.
sound is a little low on this video
These are my favorite work pens! They have so many different barrel options, and the colors are gorgeous! They also do have a standard blue color, and my personal favorite, blue-black 😍 you can find them on sale a lot so that makes them more affordable 🙃
Thanks for the lefty test! I may have to hunt these down!
you're so welcome! I am not always good about remembering but I am trying to make sure I do 💖
I bought a pack of 3 and personally i find them kinda scratchy :/
“even left handers love it!”
me: weelll...
3:25 :v
I feel like the different tips are just preference... I was wondering what the difference was too, but I guess theres none
that's what I'm assuming. it didn't really feel all that different.
lol, my size is on sale. 60% off. not Cartier, but it'll do.
I have all those pens they the only pens I can write nicely with
I always say that the pen makes the handwriting 😂😂
So...the con is that it's a needle...the pro is that it's ribbed for her pleasure. Gotcha. :)
Pentel energel is the best. Honestly, this is your go to pen if you are a student
I use the precise v5 rolling ball extra fine made by pilot :v
I bought these pens Because of your review
I like the way the Medium Metal tip writes. I've been using these pens for a long time. Purple being my favorite as in writes MORE smoothly, the needle dick writes scratchy over time, SUCKS!
OMG I wrote needle dick :0 hahaha! Needle TIP lol!
hahahahahahahahahaaha
It a needle and conical tip
no
I have ALL of those colors too haha! I've gone through 5 purple pens. That's how much I like them. For my journaling
Nice!
That's crazy they cost so much in your city. I just saw these exact pens today, same set and colors, at my local Target and the pack was $6.99. 😳
Everything is overpriced here. I WILL double check tho, cuz I was going off of the website because I couldn't find my receipt. I might have been wrong.
Planners & Polish that's just cheap
i’m in love 😍 with them

Ur hilarious 😂 Good job on the review, gonna scoop one up to try. Thanks!
LOL living for ur vibes
You mean Premium?
These are my fav pens 😀
Getting more than a little distracted by the face that our nails match lol
YES!
😝 that orange ink was beaaaaut xo
dude, wasn't it??
PILOT JUICE FOR THE WIN
I can see who you will be rooting for in the thunderdome haha
I love these pens! My favorite colors are red and purple! So pretty!
They are cheaper online.
Insert "just the tip" joke here...
Left handed friendly? Challenge accepted!
I may enlist my lefty daughter to help with the thunderdome so she can really try them and report back!
Hi
The needle dick comment made me laugh
