The selling point of the Sarasa Gel Retractable Pens is the fact that they’ve made the ink dry faster on most paper. The packaging says less than a second. Which is great for me as I use a notepad daily. My niece and nephew love the fact the pens dry so fast, meaning no more smearing homework across the page.
Zebra is promoting these inks for left-handed people, and though I’m not anywhere near a lefty, I did try a bit, but I don’t tend to drag my hand.
They’ve even managed to make the ink darker and richer. Even the lighter colors like the apple green and orange are easily legible on typical paper. These are 0.7mm points, which Zebra calls “medium” point, these pens also come in 0.5mm and 1.0mm.
The rubber grip is comfortable and slightly curved. The barrel colors match the ink and are translucent so you can see the ink levels. They’re using latex free rubber for the grips for those who are sensitive to materials like that. They’ve smoothed out as many edges as possible giving the Sarasas a streamlined look and feel. These are good, comfortable pens. The Sarasa line tends to be economical and refillable. These take the Zebra JF refill.
Zebra Stylus pen is something I am happy I got to try out because I am only on my phone and trying to type the right thing never works out for me with my fat little fingers. With the pen it makes it a lot better for me to do what I have to.
Overall, these are some of the best pens I have used and the colors are so vibrant!
