I'd be curious to hear your opinions.

Thanks :-)

Ps I meant how accurate do you find the calorie counting - apologies for the type-o in the title :smile:

    I don't have an answer, but I'd be interested to hear others opinions.

    I got it...but never got it to work. At all. Said I burned 1 calorie and just force stopped. :grumble:

    Guess I'm not too much help. But for me it was a bust.
  • I have using the pedometer http://www.prajwalhealthcare.com/digital-pedometer-hj-203.html for almost an year now. As far as the accuracy is concerned, I am just happy!. Thats all I can say!!

    I am hoping you are still using the pedometers in question. I have been using MapMyWalk and runstatic pedometer for a while. I discovered that the former displays the distance travelled more accurately. In other words, more accurate display of calories burned.
