The regular pocket style chisel tip Sharpie highlighters are much better, with a smoother tip and glide across the page

Cons:-Thinner tip than standard highlighter-Blue and Purple are two dark

The tips are slanted well and overall really like these.

I have also purchased the Sharpie liquid highlighters which are also better than these (in my opinion), and offer the same array of colors as these retractable ones but are definitely more highlighter-like than marker-like and have a very smooth tip and glide.

Because of the relatively fine chisel tip, there simply cannot be as much capacity as those huge highlighters.. for you I recommend Staetler Textsurfer Classic Staedtler Textsurfer Classic Highlighter, Chisel Tip, Blue/Green/Orange/Pink/Purple/Red/Turquoise/Yellow, 8 per Set (364WP8)

The tip is a tiny bit more narrow than a standard highlighter but it actually works in its favor

They're pretty fine chisel tip, I'm the type the when highlighting a paragraph I like to have the highlighter lines touch when highlighting multiple lines, with this its very hard without creating multiple dark areas

I love the retractable tips, and they don't smear.

The tips were uncomfortable to color or write with.

The retractable tip works well - after several months the pens are all still "juicy" and work great.

Love the color options and the retractable tips!

Very nice tips!

Love the retractable tip feature.

These are great for highlighting, but the tip is strong enough that if you hold it another way you can write stuff down without it all looping together

PROS:**Smudge-free**Bright color**Thin, chisel tip**Convenient retracting featureCONS:**Go dry very quickly with lots of useI have switched back to Sharpie highlighters with a cap and am much happier with the amount of use I can get out of them.

they are a little 'stiff' at first, but 'break in' to a comfortable marker fairly quicklycolor tip.

I love the retractable feature of this marker, colors are good and all but the tips are kind of hard, the sharpie accent that is short and has a cap are much smoother

As I love the writing feature, the color selection in the package, the package itself, and the retractable tip, I have to give these the highest star rating.

The best part is the retractable tips (I would say they are small/medium size compared to other highlighters I have used in the past

They don't bleed through paper and have an excellent chiseled tip

PROS:**Smudge-free**Bright color**Thin, chisel tip**Convenient retracting featureCONS:**Go dry very quickly with lots of useI have switched back to Sharpie highlighters with a cap and am much happier with the amount of use I can get out of them.

The tips of the pink and red sharpie were damaged to the point that they were not usable

I like this product very much - the smaller tip makes highlighting small copy much easier and less messy.

They catch ink easily which doesn't help and is ruining the tips

(hehe):-Sharpie Retractable Highlighters are my FAVORITE highlighter, by far.-Smaller, more precise chisel tip- not those big fat ones I used in high school-The retractable tip mechanism really keeps these from drying out.

The tips on retractable are not like the liquid pop tops.

Thin and the tip is rough

handy and retractability preserves the tips.

hard flat tip you have to hold the right way to get the flat band of yellow - what a pain

I know the tips will not be so fine after a few uses, but that doesn't bother me.

My favorite it Bic BriteLiner; comfortable to hold, fine marking tip, and I can see how much ink is left (about once a month I throw out a marker because I have used up all the ink).

This multi-pack serves its purpose well, and I love the convenience of having a retractable tip instead of having to mess with removing caps.

Cons:-Thinner tip than standard highlighter-Blue and Purple are two dark

The tips are a little stiff and narrow for my taste, but I think that is a matter of preference.

But I don't like the tips of the highlighters

Also, these in particular don't dry out because there's a little internal flap that covers the tip when the tip is retracted.

I love the idea of the retractable markers, but they have a weird tip

The tips retract into the barrel of the highlighter to keep the ink from drying out, while no more worries about lost caps or loose caps falling off

If you don't have a steady hand, you may have to get used to these, as their tip is precise in its chiseled design

Retractable tip

It seems silly, but I buy these because of the no cap/retractable tip.

Kind of irksome if you are marking a small chart of need something fine tipped.

These are great, because the tip is retractable.

Highlight marker with convenient retractable tip helps to keep from drying out early.

The retractable tip works well - after several months the pens are all still "juicy" and work great.

These are more fine tipped than you big, normal highliter, but they do get the job done

retractable action protects the chiseled tip.

Also, the tips seem to become frayed and lose their firm tip; I believe it is because it hits up against the spinning disc that closes and opens when clicking.

Noticed immediately that the coarse tip on these highlighters would not allow precision highlighting, so I used a drafting template to fill in the squares

Great assortment of colors, nice narrow tips, and seriously smudge proof- even on slick coated paper.

My only problem is that the tip is too stiff, so I can't highlight at whatever angle I hold the pen.

With it’s oddly sharp/tiny slanted tip, I found myself having to swipe through a line of text 2 or 3 times
