Editorial Review
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 calorie consumption 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).
What's in the Box
Pedometer, battery (CR2032), screwdriver, strap, clip for strap, holder, and instructional manual.

Customer ReviewsOmron HJ-1125 / 5.0
This is the best pedometer I've ever had...and I've had many. Having a pedometer really encourages me to walk, and I need to walk because of several health concerns. I love the fact that I don't have to use the clip, but it is available if needed. I keep it in my pocket and it works perfectly. The numbers are easy to read and I like being able to track my aroebic steps in addition to my regular steps. A great buy!
Omron HJ1125 / 5.0
I've had 2 or 3 other pedometers and this is the best one I've owned. I bought it mainly on the review of another customer that said it registered steps more accurately than an Accurite he also bought. I also have an Omron blood pressure monitor; Omron makes good equipment. Also saw a review from a customer that lost his because it fell off the belt holder. All you have to do is attach the security strap to the pedometer and to your pocket and then place it in the belt holder. If it falls out, the strap saves it (DUH!).
worked at first then got flakey2 / 5.0
This worked reasonably well for the first week, then began to read erratically, for example giving me only 177 steps in a 2 mile walk. (My legs are long, but not THAT long.) Haven't been able to figure out the problem, but with all the exposed buttons, it is possible that some setting was messed up banging into something in a pocket. It is not designed to deal with that.
The design is very cute and sleek looking, but not very functional. I prefer ergonomically sound and functional over cute. The belt clip is weak and it pops off a belt or pocket top very easily. It is bulky and oddly shaped, making it difficult to fit into pockets or to fit comfortably on a belt (if it would even stay in place).
I have to say I am not impressed, and if I had found the problems sooner, would have returned it. I will continue to work with it and see if I can discover the problem, but I do not having to spend my valuable time troubleshooting something right out of the box. I will update when I have more info about the malfunction.
Great Product5 / 5.0

Wish I could review it...but it never arrived...1 / 5.0
I ordered this item and had it delivered to a friend. I checked with her about one month after the item was ordered, and she said she never got it. The product probably is fine, but I have to question Amazon's ability to deliver. I've never had this problem before with Amazon, and am somewhat surprised by the situation.
