I really like this product, I think it would appeal to a lot of people. It is a handy product, you can use it as a pen, carry it in your handbag/pocket, can use it to hold your phones and use it in a variety of situations.

I have been using this for both my iPhone and as a writing implement. It feels quite cheap but it is actually really easy to wrote with. A bit 'gimicky' but a good product, which is really easy to use.

Pros: Super practical product to a tech savvy audience. Phone stand idea is great. Min order of 100 is good also for small orders. Cons: Black plastic stylus end could be more sturdy and it has a small print area (on a relatively small product - a pen)

This product is just another pen. It wasn't very comfortable when using it to write with and the pen cap section doesn't seem to make sense or be very practical. Looks like it should be a 'click' pen but it was a twist.

The pen does have a double usage but you can only use one feature at time. For people with phones on their desks all day the pen is useless, the plastic nature of the pen isn't the best quality.

The pen was useful but didn't write as smooth as other pens, I also struggled to figure out what the design was for and when I did use it for my iPhone my phone did not sit in it properly. The pen has stopped working and the end has already broken with a week or two. Not the best quality but did well for a few days.

I wasn't sure what was special about this pen until I read more and then I absolutely loved it. What a practical item, a pen, a phone pointer/cleaner and also a discreet phone holder. The phone holder is sturdy and it doesn't have to be a permanent fixture on the phone therefore it doesn't obscure any casing design that people have chosen. It is quite a small area to get the brand message over and I would about the pen clip. My experience is that often the clip snaps off.

i loved the concept of this pen however, you had to press on quite hard on the screen of my phone to get it to work and i would be concerned about how far the nib went into the pen as to whether it would scratch the screen on my £600 phone. no matter how well made, i think as a freebie this would play on peoples minds

Not a bad pen, and the phone holder does work, though it is a little rocky!

At first glance this looks like a clever product with alot of functions. It certainly offers more than an ordinary pen. Saying that I never use a stylus and did not realise it was a phone cleaner aswell. The phone holder bit is useful and works ok. Overall a decent little product that would promote some interest if given away as a promotional item.

This is an interesting product and something that I have not seen before. It truly is a pen of many uses. It is a black ink ball pen with a twist action to bring out the pen nib. When the pen is closed, the end is a stylus, which works very well. Also, the end of the pen has a cut-out area that can be used as a phone holder - unfortunately, this is not very stable and takes a few attempts to get the phone to sit in it and upright in a stable way. Lastly, at the very end of the pen is a phone cleaner which does clean the screen very well without scratching it.

Not a very exciting looking pen but works very well. The screen cleaning pad and stylo point work better than the mop head and the pen itself writes neatly. An added bonus is the phone stand function which doesn’t take any extra space. The print and branding area are typical for a pen. There aren’t many colours to choose from.

Handy little multi-purpose pen for a good price. It would be good to have it on display so that customers understand how to use it properly, because it's not immediately obvious it's more than a pen. There's isn't loads of space for branding, but it's a reasonably priced option.

This is a colourful useful pen but broke before I could use it. If you twist the pen the wrong way it breaks. The screen cleaner end is good and inventive but not the best cleaner for a full iPhone screen. I did like the way the pen could hold your phone but it did make it feel a little cumbersome to hold.

A strange looking item, but I like the idea. Unfortunately, it didn't work for me - I have an iPhone in a case and it doesn't fit into the holder at the end (when I tried to stand it on it's end instead of side, it peeled off the screen protector. The cleaner pad works well, the tip to use on the screen requires a firm touch and I would be concerned about writing on my device with the pen even though it is retracted (tried applying same pressure when on a piece of paper and the pen did write). The pen works well as a pen, the print size good and the pen feels well made/sturdy, but as a device to use for my phone, I am not convinced.

Great!! I didn't know what the little dent was at first, until I read the brochure, and it explained that it was for holding your phone up. A small suggestion: would be useful to have a small (removable) piece of paper attached to the top with instructions of what this is for. Very relevant for most people today as everyone has a smart phone. Always have product on my desk now.

As a pen, it does the job. Decent quality and ink flows well. As a phone cleaner, I did not find that it worked very well. My screen was still smeared after use. As a phone holder, it was fine, but not a function that I would personally use much. Can't comment on price as pricing details are not supplied with the trial products.

Compact and well designed - fair sized branding area and all elements of the pen work well, even on the larger smartphones (just make sure there isn't a extra case on the phone otherwise it is too thick to fit in the space provided!)

Phone-Up Ball Pen Not the most interesting first impression and interesting as to what it is due to its shape. The pen works well and when retracted works on a touch screen device with not risk of scratching the screen. When laid flat and a phone inserted into the preformed lot sits extremely well giving a great view of the screen. I passed this item around the office and the comments back were positive in fact one member of staff loves it so much that it is used every day to hold her phone on the desk. The printing on the pen look good and advertises or markets very well as a promotional merchandise.

The pen doesn't look very nice. The nib and top doesn't seem to perform any function on an iPad.

Nice idea but in practice it wasn't that effective. The phone tipped over on the screen holder and the screen cleaner didn't really work. My phone didn't really respond to the touch element on the end either.

Didn't really like this one at all. Too flimsy to hold a smartphone and the 'cleaner' tip just smudged the screen rather than cleaned it. Presumably, because it was designed to be multi-purpose, the pen is top-heavy and not very ergonomic. I asked a few colleagues what they thought it was for - none of them guessed that it was supposed to be a phone holder - they just thought it was a strange looking pen

I don't think these type of pens are good in the long run as the pen ink may "blob" and therefore go on to the end of the pen.

Its a cheap pen with a few extras, the Screen cleaner on the back and the Stylus feature on the front. 2 problems with this pen are 1. The stylus is a bit too soft when using it with a phone to type too spongy would be better if made of a harder material. 2. The screen cleaner is not great if it is black as it attracts dirt and is very noticeable as dust/ dirt tends to be white.

I like stylus pens and the added stand and screen clean on this one is nifty. Good branding area. Only thing is my mobile is in a protective case so the stand part isn't that practical as it's too wide for the slot. But overall a good pen for the price.

These pens are a clever design but look and feel quite disposable and are a little contrived to use for the three possible purposes. I certainly wouldn't use one, nor can I recall any of my colleagues or are customers using phone stands - let alone multi-functional phone stands.

I'm not keen on this product, it feels and looks quite cheap. I also think the added functionality of the screen wiper makes it over engineered. It makes it look odd and is an awkward shape, and the screen wiper doesn't work properly. It's too small so feels like it's scratching the screen more than anything else.

If this was a normal pen then the branding etc is great and it would work well. However as it is supposed to have extra functions such as the phone holder and cleaner I don't think it is able to fulfil those functions. It cant really hold a phone straight therefore it cant be used for that function and it doesn't clean a screen either.

Its a pen and a screen cleaner and has a touch screen paddy thing on it! Personally not overly keen on the look of it, is a bit overly plastic and cheap looking for me, but it does the job! and I would imagine its quite good value for money, though I don't have any prices to hand on this item so that's a bit of a guess!
