The Omron HJ-112 Pocket Pedometer is an advanced, high-tech pedometer that--thanks to unique dual sensor technology--can be carried in your pocket or bag. Now you can just drop your pedometer in your purse to find out how much exercise you get in a typical day of work, errands, and other tasks. Of course, you can also attach it to your belt like a traditional pedometer. 
A large, easy-to-read display helps you keep tabs on your workout. View larger. | The HJ-112 accurately measures your steps, as well as aerobic steps and minutes. You can also use it to measure calories burned during your workout, as well as the distance you've traveled. The device's large, easy-to-read LCD display can separately display aerobic steps and minutes walked more than 10 minutes continuously, so you always have the information you need right in front of you. Meanwhile, a seven day history lets you review a full week of exercise. The device also resets at midnight automatically so it's ready to go every morning. Of course, the device can also function as a handy and highly accurate clock. It also comes with a detachable belt holder and security strap so it's always close at hand. The HJ-112 is powered by a replaceable lithium battery (CR2032) that will last six months when used for walking 10,000 steps a day. The device measures approximately 2.8 x 2.1 x .6 inches (H x W x D) and weighs 1.1 ounces (not including battery).

 Great accuracy - display defective - costly & hassle to return September 1, 2010
MjM
I purchased two of these early this summer. I found it to be easy to set up and very accurate. Within two weeks the digital readout started to malfunction leaving only a portion of the numbers legible. I paid for the return of it and another was sent to me that has worked well. The 2nd one, received as part of the original order, worked well for two months and then the same thing happened. Neither problem occurred after dropping it or other possible answers. I replaced the battery but the display continued to malfunction. When contacting the company, since it was under warranty, I was told I would need to send it back at my expense, pay another $8 for their costs and they highly recommended that I insure it as well. After realizing the cost I was incurring at this point was almost to the point of what I had paid originally - I decided to give up and try a different brand.
 Can't insert battery August 30, 2010
Retiree (Fayetteville, AR)
The screw for the battery compartment does not seem to be an isolated problem. The screw for the battery cover is an extremely small Phillips head. There is a flat piece of metal provided with a tab on each end. This supposed to be the screwdriver. Ordinarily this might work. But in this case the tab is too long to fit in the cross-slot. Therefore the screw cannot be removed so the battery can be inserted. I have jewelers screwdrivers but doubt they would work because the cross-slots are so small they appear nearly round. Makes it difficult to screw in or out.
It's a shame because the product looks and feels good. But with no battery it is no better than a paper weight, in fact not that good. It's not heavy enough to hold paper down.
There are MANY other ways to secure a battery compartment. Too bad they didn't choose one of them. I have sent this thing back to Amazon. Don't waste your time or money on this product.
 Very accurate! August 30, 2010
Lamplady (Lexington, KY)
This is my 2nd HJ-112. The previous one worked for 2 years w/absolutely no problems. I didn't even have to change the battery for at least 18 months. The only reason I needed a new one is that I dropped the old one once too many times. I'm very pleased with this pedometer and feel like it's the most accurate brand and style I've owned.
No good August 29, 2010

I bought this pedometer thinking it could track my distance. It only measures the distance you run in relation to your stride length, not actaul mileage. Totally useless.
Great Workout Tool August 27, 2010
Sparky
I'm currently trying to get back into shape after my last doctor's visit. Over the summer I gained way too much weight...60 pounds! I was looking for a helpful tool to help me get on a good workout plan and a pedometer would be the best thing to help me keep track. All the pedometers I saw were either too expensive or too cheap with bad reviews. Eventually my friend told me about the Omron HJ-112 Digital Pocket Pedometer. Looking at positive reviews and an affordable price, I jumped at the deal.
I've been using this pedometer since June and I've already burned up to 60lbs with my plan and this tool at my side. The Omron helped me write up a plan and stick to it daily. I'm in the best shape I've been in my life and I owe it all to this magical little device. Affordable and reliable, it really is the best pedometer on the market right now. This baby has never failed me and always has provided me with good and accurate results.
I could not think of a better device for you to use then the Omron HJ-112 Digital Pocket Pedometer. The results are always accurate and easy to understand. You won't be able to find a more competitive price or user satisfaction on the market today. I also refereed this product to a co-worker of mine and she is enjoying the benefits ever since. I plan on ordering some more again for my family in the upcoming holidays. This is one investment in your health and well-being that will surely pay off and show results in the longrun of your workout and diet regiment.
One feature I was surprised to notice was that this little device was also helping me monitor my calorie intake. In part of my workout plan I agreed to get on a steady diet. I had to find a good balance between not starving but healthy. With this little tool I'm able to stay on track and keep my calorie intake per-day in a healthy ratio. Never too much but just enough. No other pedometer I've seen will help you do that!
Thanks again Omron. Your pocket device is still being used today, 3 months later. Everything is working good and my weight just keeps dropping. I was writing this review right now actually before I head out for a run. My device is currently clipped to my belt. I just had to inform consumers on how great this product is. Sorry for my lengthy review but a product this amazing really, really, REALLY, deserves it. I'll be seeing a few more orders come Christmas time. Thanks Omron!
I can also use the pedometer to time my workouts. I'm trying to stick to an hour long jog a day and this pedometer makes sure I stay on track. It starts when I instruct it to and will keep timing me along my run. It's so handy to have and much more convenient then attempting to time yourself with your regular old wrist watch. The Omron will make sure your staying on your plan and never skipping out or over-exerting yourself in the process.
The belt clip was also an amazing feature. I just strapped it onto my belt and didn't worry at all. As you can imagine, running with a little device in your hand would be uncomfortable. The clip never failed me and the device always stayed firmly in place. The size was small enough to where you practically don't even notice it's there until you look down. This was handy for me since the past pedometer I used kept crunching on my stomach causing me discomfort as I ran.
And the device is so small and convenient it's great. Whenever I don't have a belt on I can just toss this into my running bag or backpack and have it with me on the go anywhere. Sometimes when you're going to be busy you're not sure if you'll have the time to work out that day. I just put this little pedometer into my backpack and if I manage to find the time to squeeze in a few runs then it's right there by my side on the go.
Everyone I know who has purchased this little miracle device has been satisfied so far. It's really incredible how much such a small device can do and how much of a big impact it can make on your fitness and well-being. I don't think it would have been possible for me to get back in shape and now further then that without this device at my side. There is no way anyone could time themselves to such accuracy without a pedometer and the Omron is the most affordable and reliable you can get.
The design is also really stylish. I love the colors. It looks modern and up-to-date. Most pedometers look dated and old. Kinda embarrassing to be using in public. The Omron though manages to maintain a good design and still do the job it promises, helping you lose weight. There is no comparable pedometer on the market today in this price range that will deliver so many features to your satisfaction.
All in-all this device is the perfect weight-loss tool. You're getting a personal coach with you that is pocket sized really. If you have the will-power and determination to get yourself in shape then the Omron HJ-112 Digital Pocket Pedometer is what you need. Everything from a handheld calorie counter to a distance traveled to a time traveled. If there's another device out there that can beat what the Omron HJ-112 Digital Pocket Pedometer offers then I've yet to see it.
People have to support this company. They're providing true results at affordable rates and great reliability. There's nothing more you can ask for! Everything that this device contains is useful in helping you burn the calories and maintain or regain your figure. It's just that simple. Thanks again Omron. I got a run to make!
