Product Description: Omron® HJ-303 Pedometer
As Omron's most versatile pedometer, the HJ-303 features a unique and extremely reliable tri-axis smart sensor that tracks your steps with total accuracy, no matter where you keep it. Clipped to your hip, in your pocket or in your bag, the HJ-303 keeps a precise count of your daily activity level, measuring walking and moderate steps, as well the distance you've traveled and the calories you've burned. This specialized pedometer is extremely accurate, easy to read, and features a sleep mode that extends the life of the battery. In addition, the HJ-303 gives you more info on your daily activity and enables you to track your progress over time, separately counting your total steps until you reach 1 million.
When You Know Your Numbers, You'll Grow Your Numbers.
You'd be surprised by how many steps you already take each day. A few hundred walking to the bus, a couple thousand going a few blocks down for lunch, and with an Omron Pedometer you'll know just how many steps you're taking and begin looking for ways to see that number get bigger every day.
Every Step Counts
Omron Pedometers use smart sensor technology rather than the standard pendulum system to get a more accurate reading. Many Omron Pedometers, including the HJ-303, can be programmed to your personal stride length to provide you with an even more accurate count.
The Omron HJ-303 Pedometer offers:
Omron Tri-Axis Technology— Counts steps accurately and quietly whether positioned flat, vertically or horizontallyTracks Daily Distance and Calories Burned— For better health tracking
Automatic Reset— Start with a clean slate each day to track your steps more accurately
Weekly Log— Store up to 7 days of information in memory; resets to zero at midnight so you're ready to go every morning
Five tracking modes— Track steps, moderate steps, time, distance and calories burned

A few steps toward a healthier life
Walking is a great way to stay healthy. In fact, walking 10,000 steps a day is widely recommended by health and fitness professionals. And when you track your steps with a pedometer, like the Omron HJ-303, studies show you're likely to increase your total number of steps a day by about 2,000, or 1 mile.*
Getting Started
Warm Up First-Before your walk, stretch (arm circles, hip circles and leg lifts) to get your blood flowing and reduce the risk of injury.
Use a Pedometer—Omron Pedometers are the partners you can count on when you want to accurately track your daily routine and help you reach your recommended 10,000 daily steps.
Set Goals—Begin slowly and work your way up. By setting goals you'll push yourself farther and achieve more.
Mix It Up—Add variety to your routine by changing pace, walking uphill or just changing your route.
Add Resistance—Include some upper-body exercises as you walk, such as arm reaches or carrying water bottles in each hand to increase your calorie burn.

We use ours every day. The only time we really take them off is at night. We compare our steps every once in a while to see who is ahead for the day. It is silly but fun and keeps us motivated to walk more. I used ride a bike but not so much lately because the Omron does not register steps when biking :-).
Likes
Accuracy - we found it to be very accurate in measuring steps and distance. I confirmed it with my iPhone app that measures and tracks distance and speed using the built-in iPhone GPS. In a 2 mile walk there was very little difference in the distance or number of steps walked. The Omron needed to be calibrated with the length of our stride and then it accurately measured distance traveled. It was also very accurate at determining when we had taken a step no matter how we were holding the Omron. It does not track non-steps because it knows that steps are rhythmic and will not even consider any steps taken until at least 4 "steps" are recognized by the device and these 4 steps are then added to the step count in addition to current steps that are being taken. It does not continuously update the display with each step; instead it only updates the screen periodically to conserve battery life.
Medium steps - It counts the number of steps we take between about 2.5 and 3.5 mph, which is always smaller than the total number of steps. This is very useful because my wife's Weight Watcher charts only count medium steps. We try to get at least 10k steps each day and usually about 7-8k of them are medium steps.
Multiple displays and history - It provides 7 days of history for each of the displays except the trip display. The displays are: Step count, current time, moderate step count, moderate minutes, calories used, distance traveled, trip steps, trip days. We can see the current day values for all of these displays as well as yesterday, 2 days ago, etc., up to 7 days back. The trip steps and trip days is used for tracking total number of steps and the number of days it took to get those steps. This last display can be reset at anytime if we want to keep track our total steps taken or use it to track the steps on a specific trip. The counter only goes to 999,999 so it is not good for tracking total steps over a long period. The display values reset to zero each night at midnight to count the steps taken on the new day. The trip displays do not reset until we do it manually.
Customizable - There are several values we can change to get accurate information out of the displays. These values can be changed by pressing the recessed reset button on the back. It first asks for the current time, weight, height, and stride length. Instructions are provided to easily determine our stride. If any of these values ever need updated pressing reset again will take us through the screens with the current value of the particular option displayed first.
Multiple attachment methods - It comes with a belt clip, lanyard, and clip that goes on the end of the lanyard. The belt clip is small and the Omron slides in and out of the clip vertically and is quite snug. The other clip is very unique. I had never seen one like it and when I learned how it worked I wondered why all clips are not made this way.
Excellent customer support - I had a problem with mine. The time kept resetting without my intervention. I opened an online ticket and received a quick response and fix for the problem. Turns out I had my pedometer and Blackberry Pearl in the same pocket and the RF from the phone reset the time on the Omron once in a while. They fixed it in a heartbeat after I have been experiencing this problem for several weeks.
Low cost - This was a very low cost item for the functions it provides and the 3-axis capability, which we found very helpful. I actually bought a 3rd one to have just in case one of the other two goes bad.
Suggestions
Separate out trip from total steps - Right now you must pick between total steps walked by simply never resetting this value and trip steps. Although the display says trip steps it can be used for total steps walked for any duration until it reaches 999,999 steps. The total steps display should have an additional digit so that 10m steps could register. We reach 999,999 in about 3 months so an additional digit on the step counter would allow almost 3 years of total steps walked.
Add more days in the memory - There are currently only 7 days of memory. Increasing this to at least a month would be very helpful. If we could also just hold down the up/down arrow keys to scroll it would make it easier to scroll through more days.
Add total moderate steps and days display - trip steps counts all steps taken since the value was last reset. Adding another display for total moderate would be helpful for those who want to achieve an average number of moderate steps over time.
Date setting - It would be helful to provide a date setting so that you could see the date and day of week for any prior period that was saved in the history.
Make it smaller - there is unneeded space between the display, the buttons, and the outer edge of the device. Although it's pretty small and light now, a smaller device would be even better, The battery compartment can be shifted to the middle rather than on the bottom of the back.
This pedometer is very accurate. Because of the tri-axis, it can be worn in any position. It can also just be thrown in your purse or bag (if you are carrying it) or in any pocket you have. I have a .7 mile walk to the bus stop and it always says I've gone .7 miles once I get there. You must set your stride length when you get it, and if you follow the instructions (which are super simple), then you will find this pedometer to be incredibly accurate.
Another thing that I LOVE about this pedometer is the different kinds of information that it gives. Not only does it count steps and distance, but it counts "Moderate" steps. These are fast paced steps that raise your heart rate. It gives you the number of steps and the amount of time that you spent doing those fast steps. It is very rewarding to see not only the number of steps, but the kinds of steps that you are taking (and how long you are taking them). It makes for a much clearer picture of your activity. I try to make sure that I'm getting somewhere between 40-60 minutes of moderate steps each day. It is like a challenge that inspires me to move a little quicker, and those heart rate increasing steps are steps toward health!
The pedometer also tracks how many calories you have burned and the total number steps you have taken in all days combined (and how many days that is). It resets every night a midnight and saves 7 days worth of data so it's easy to compare your activity level from day to day. It also tells you the time, which I have found to be very convenient (since I don't wear a watch).
While my classmates complained about improperly working pedometers, broken pedometers, bulky/ugly pedometers and pedometers that don't accurately count steps, all while fiddling to make sure those pedometers were in the "correct" position on their hip, I was casually attaching my attractive, accurate, and small pedometer to whatever place was most convenient. This pedometer also comes with a safety strap, which none of my classmates' did. This is particularly nice so that you don't lose the pedometer to the toilet or anything. My classmates had to order straps separately.
This pedometer is worth every penny. And after 8 months of daily use, the battery is still going strong. The screen goes to sleep when you aren't using it, so it saves the battery. All you have to do is press a button, and the screen wakes up to give you all that useful information. Get this pedometer, you will not be disappointed!
