We keep Zebra Pen Z-GRIP Soft Touch Black Ink Ballpoint Pens on our pens & writing shelf alongside 49 others, and rank it on rating, review volume and live price rather than on the brand. The manufacturer puts it this way: ZEBRA Pen Z-Grip Soft Touch Pens feature black ink for smooth, skip-free writing. Ideal for everyday use, whether you’re jotting down notes, journaling, or brainstorming. The fully coated rubberized Soft Touch barrel provides a comfortable grip and prevents hand fatigue during extended writing sessions; perfect for school, work, or home. That is the maker talking, not us, so read it as a claim rather than a finding. On Amazon it sits at 4.7 out of 5 across 411 ratings. How that compares with the rest of the shelf is below.

Across the 50 rated pens & writing products we track, the middle of the pack sits at 4.6 out of 5. This one scores 4.7. That sits mid-table. Ratings this close together don't decide anything on their own, so weigh pack size, price per unit and the specifics below instead.
411 people rated it, where the shelf median is 8,067. That's a thin base for this shelf. A score from a small number of buyers can move a long way on a handful of new reviews, so treat it as a first impression rather than a settled verdict.
On money, this sits in the bottom third of a shelf running from £1.58 to £14.04, with the midpoint around £4.99. Cheap with a middling rating is a fair trade if the specifics suit you, and it is the usual reason to pick something at this end of the shelf.
