Product Description
Pocket pedometer
Amazon.com Product Description
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).

 Reset Button Removed September 3, 2010
Capt'n Bob (Lincoln, CA USA)
Although they haven't changed the model number it appears the device currently shipping no longer has a reset button on the front. That button would reset the device to zero for today, like if you wanted to measure a particular hike.
If you look at the product picture that Amazon has, that is a correct representation. However, if you look at the user pictures, or google for a manual you see that previously the product had four buttons on the front, one of which was that reset button.
I'm guessing some people were pressing that button by mistake and losing part of their day's activities so Omron decided to remove it. That's fine, except now if you want to reset the display to zero you have to stick a pin in the reset hole on the back, and then enter all your data again...time, stride length, weight.
Does this matter. To me it's a pain in the neck, but to most of the people who use the device it may be just fine since what they really want is to measure their total activity for each day, not a particular walk.
(Of course for a single walk, you just look at the display before you leave and subtract that reading when you are done.)
Seems like Omron could have designed a different reset button that was harder to press by accident instead of eliminating it entirely.
Whatever, it's not a huge deal, I just thought people should be aware of this.
Aside from that the device seems fine, and that is covered by lots of other reviews, so I won't repeat them. I just gave it 4 stars instead of 5 because of my own needs. I also think they should have changed the model number when they removed that button.
nice, but doesn't count aerobic steps well September 2, 2010

I purchased this pedometer in July! It's really easy to use and very lightweight. I like it a lot, but have noted it will fall off your belt if you don't make sure it's on there very tightly. Also, it doesn't count all your aerobic steps, yesterday it didn't count them for the first 3000 steps. But I still like it!
 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.
