For
  • Short and pocketable retractable
  • Simple cartridge filling
  • Much lighter than the A1 — the main reason to choose it
  • Same capless convenience
  • Wide range of colourways
  • Cheap enough to risk
Against
  • ~$59 is steep next to the A2
  • Little review coverage
  • Resin body feels less premium than the A1's metal
  • Clip position still dictates the grip
  • Same mechanism longevity question
◂ better of these faded — all the same Clear all
