I was expecting something similar to Sakura Glaze pens, but these are different. The colors are brighter than you'd think, too.
I tried writing on different materials: YES, I really did test every claim. They write on regular notebook paper, glossy magazine covers,patent leather, vinyl, wood, coated and uncoated cardboard, plastic ( the case the pens came in, for ex.) enamel-coated metal, glass, Pyrex, and stainless steel.
They write on shiny metal and plastic but some of the shiniest, smoothest surfaces will cause the ink to bead up via surface tension. When other reviewers complained of these "not working," they probably were experiencing the same problem as I did when some pens simply refused to put ANY ink out. All you have to do is draw straight lines quickly on an absorbent surface, like regular notebook paper, a paper towel or a scrap of fabric to get the ink flowing again. Just one or two quick swipes is all it takes. They really DO write on almost everything!

All the Latte Gel Ink Pens are beautiful colors and write well. I haven't tried drawing on every surface yet, but I can tell you so far mine has drawn on any plastic surface - even my blow dryer :)

I got my friends to use them to mark the cups and glasses at a party =D It was just great!! I've also made some real nice Bday cards and decorations with these, I love them.

So much for the purple one being my favorite. It must have been coming out the easiest with that smooth line due to some kind of leak. I just found it now, exploded in it's casing, some of the ink still inside the tube, alot of it in the cap, and most of it swimming around the inside of the barrel. Disappointing and now I expect the rest to follow.

I bought these pens from another store but I'm not sure which color set I have but I have to say they're just okay and I'm quite disapointed. I read other reviews on here that they can write on ANY surface (which sounded very exciting and made me want them even more) and I have yet to experience it.

Kyo_Love_Me must have a matte-finish cell phone, these would not write on mine, but they did on a relative's Motorola Razr. As she also stated, they wrote on her mirrors, not on any in my house. :-/
Betty must have had an extensive array of material samples to write on at the store she tried these out on. So far, they don't work on the glass surfaces I've tried at my house. They only work on certain plastics. I tried writing on a food container with the purple color, which has so far been the smoothest, thickest line (on paper) and darkest ink, but it comes out very, very thin like trying to write on plastic with regular liquid ink pens.

The example picture on here of a staff member that drew on a Jet Pens card looks very nice. The ink looks thick/wide and the colors look very vibrant. When I wrote with each color on notebook paper, most of the colors look dull and washed out. Like how Sakura Gelly Roll pens start to look when they're dying and the line is very skinny. The hardest to read on the paper are the two blues and green, and of course yellow but that's obvious. The white pen hasn't shown up on any colored surface yet so I probably won't be using that one for anything. I haven't dug out my black notebook paper for regular gel pens yet to try them.

I am very creative and wanted to use these ALL OVER everything but unfortunately, Betty, looks like I will be wasting these on plain old note taking in class.

I also have purchased this pen and indeed it writes very beautiful, my only dissapointment is that if you write on plastic, glass,etc. it chips off , but it is very good for writing on shiny papers ^^ it wont smudge

I bought this set in Japan and I love it! I'm so happy I can buy these in the US now... Tried and tested... this pen can write on anything, including acrylic!

I love these pens. They are so cool. I can draw on almost everything, like my cellphone, mirror, pencil case, on other pens, and so much more. I just love these pens. They are perfect for people who are into scrapbooking or are into decorating stuff.

These pens are so cute and color payoff is very vibrant. The selling point of these pens is that you can use it to write on many surfaces such as glass, ceramics, plastic, CDs, etc...

The pens are mini sized and is for decorative purposes. It'd be such a waste to use it for normal notetaking. Because I don't have a creative side to me, I didn't purchase these pens even though they were so pretty, but I did get the chance to try them out at the store.

I recently just got them, shipping was excellent from Jetpens.com, and just be aware look at the pictures they are SMALL pens not FULL size, HOWEVER even though a little price, they are FANTASTIC, they write well, the pigment/color of each ink is GREAT, and I have already re-ordered bc well the tip, grip and portability of the whole pack are fantastic!!!!!

these are the best little gel pens I have ever owned thus far and I own a LOT of pens, they do not smudge and ...they are just the best..... they are tiny enough u can throw them in ur purse and take all the colors with you, they brighten up my filofax notes and worked well on my leather case for my sidekick that i decorated

I don't know why there aren't a bunch of reviews, 'cause these pens are the best ones I've used so far! I guess they are kind of hard to explain about the texture when you use them, but they can write on glass and plastic! And of course they can write on paper. They do wash off of glass if you use water, and it takes a little time to dry. But it doesn't rub off. The only thing I'm not sure of, is if it comes of with water if you leave it on there for a LONG time. So I wouldn't try that. But otherwise, they are the best pens I've had so far. And the colors are bright, and show up better than I thought they would.

Love it but its like gel markers but its a pen
