Realalt - White

I thought it was going to be difficult to setup, but some of the instructions are difficult. On the card included or video's on youtube was easier to understand. I don't use it for just walking around like most people do and count steps. I only use it for exercise walking in the early mornings a few times a week. I didn't get my stride correct because I clocked the distance with my motorcycle. Then all I had to do was to keep going into the settings under "steps" and keep changing the setting for me less and less until I came up with the same mileage as my odometer on my motorcycle. It is full proof if you do it that way for distance and it shows your steps also. I don't understand anything about people counting steps. I'm only interested in the miles I walk 1 time each day that I walk a few times a week. great price and seems to be well made. I don't even know I'm wearing it.

Having just started a daily walking routine I wanted to keep track of my steps, both to monitor my progress and for "bragging rights" :-). As a graphic designer I was sitting on my butt all day in front of my computer and didn't get up except to use the restroom... not a good thing. So I have made it a point to get up every 90 minutes or so and walk around our building for 5 to 7 minutes at a time. At the beginning I was using my iPhone 5s built-in Health app, and while it didn't do a terrible job counting my steps, I suspected it wasn't as accurate as I'd like. Sure enough, when I carefully counted a thousand steps as I walked, the iPhone would regularly under count by 10 to 15%. I looked a pedometers on Amazon, and selected this unit based on it's excellent reviews and price. It arrived on time and as described. I had no issues with setting it up at all, you just have to read the instructions to understand what sequence of information you'll need to input. It came with a carrying clip, lanyard, instruction pamphlet and a small screwdriver for replacement of the already installed battery. I don't want to have it hanging around my neck on a lanyard, so I clip it around a belt loop and it stays there (flopping around a bit) securely without issues all day. I did try clipping it to the inside of my pants leg pocket, but it came loose and fell of a couple of times, so I'd be concerned about losing it somewhere if I wasn't paying attention. The belt loop clip work great for me. I've now been using the unit for just over a month on a daily basis. To make a fair comparison to the iPhone I did several tests where I would precisely count out a given number of steps (typically 500 to 2,000) and check the results. This unit is very consistent in it's count, and typically counts 1 percent over actual count (10 steps over for every 1000 walked) which is VERY accurate. During these measured walks the iPhone was in my pants pocket on the same side as the belt loop as the pedometer, and again the phone (inconsistently) undercounted my steps between 10 to 15 percent. Bottom line, an excellent and accurate pedometer at a great price. Would highly recommend this product. Note that I purchased this unit for my own use and was given no incentive or freebies to write this review, nor do I have any affiliation with the manufacturer or seller.

I bought this pedometer in July of 2023 and really like using it. It's easy to set up, accurate enough for me and I like that it has a clock. Only recently did the battery die, which I think is a nice length of time for a battery. The problem is that I can't unscrew the battery compartment. I thought it was me, so I had my (adult) son try. He said the screw just kept spinning and never progressed out of the hole. After a year and five months, I'm sure there is no recourse with the manufacturer, so I'll just throw it away. Should I buy a new one and just make sure the battery case is accessible right away? Should I just use my phone? I haven't decided. Very disappointed. I upgraded my rating to 4 stars because the same day that this review was posted, the company reached out to me through Amazon Marketplace and offered a full refund which is already showing up on my bank statement. Great customer service! And I liked the pedometer enough that I went ahead and ordered a new one.

Pretty good if one is looking only for simple step counting. Useful since often a sport's watch is kept aside and normal wrist watch is used. The prodcut does what it says. Good built.

Works good. Easy to set up and use BUT don't be afraid to look at YouTube for very easy step by step set up. Makes the whole process very clear and easy. You will need to spend time on figuring out your stride and tweak it a bit. Great product.

Review shall be after 1year

I got sick of mucking around with fitbits and stuff that needed to sync with an app etc - this is back to basics and works great. I've been using it every day for months and have had no problems. Motivates me to get my steps in. Seems to be pretty accurate. I turned the unit around in the clip housing opposite to how it arrived, because I kept bumping the Mode button whenever I tried to squeeze the clip open. But if you just take it out and turn it around, the problem is solved.

love it - better than my FITBIT as use walker which doesn't record steps properly - gives me boost to do 10k steps a day.
