PINGKO Outdoor Multi-Function Portable Sport Pedometer Step/Distance/Calories/Counter

Bought this for my mom and she absolutely loves ❤️ this pedometer. The ease of use and big fonts and great! She loves that she can forget about it being clipped on her. Tracks well and is accurate.

Although the steps were simple, programming was extremely difficult. I think the the push of the buttons was just not registering. It too about 20 minutes to set up the time: the hour set quickly but the minutes kept reverting to another setting; It took as Long to change Km to miles. I gave up with the rest. Still, I thought I could use this for steps. I compared it's numbers to an activity and time spent that I had previously confirmed. I tried this over 2 days and the steps only register about 40 to 50% of the ones actually taken. I did this with the device on my waistband as advised. I also tried this while simply walking down the block. It worked for perhaps 10 minutes but then did not register all steps.

very accurate!!!!!!

This pedometer did a good job of accuracy on steps, but only if clipped on waistband near hip. It has some nice features including time and distance walked. However there is a design flaw with the clip. The plastic is too weak for the spring that works the clip. The first one I owned broke just short of a year, and my second one didn't last even that amount of time. Once the clip breaks it's worthless, as it won't register steps even if its in a hip pocket. Sad, because I really liked it otherwise.

To start, I was looking for a pedometer that did not require a smartphone app, that was not a watch, and didn't break the bank, particularly if it fell off my jeans and I didn't see it to retrieve it. The features of pedometer, calorie counter, distance walked (miles or km), and time clock are all very helpful and seem to do well. I compared it against a fitness wrist watch, (Fitbit of some sort I had borrowed) and it seems to be more accurate than the Fitbit. The Fitbit depends on arm motions to count steps, which means that the Fitbit may not count when your arms are stable pushing a cart/stroller, but the Fitbit may also count in error when you are standing relatively in one position (such as bagging groceries and primarily rotating at the waist, or working at an office table collating papers). I came to rely on the accuracy of my pedometer moreso than the Fitbit watch and the pedometer seemed to count my steps well. I came to appreciate the time clock feature as I normally don't wear a watch at work (I find myself working in a lot of water, sometimes with chemicals/cleaners/dirt). I was also able to earn steps for short walks that the Fitbit didn't always measure, like returning items close by to proper shelves. I did have a couple of issues with the pedometer resetting unexpectedly when I leaned against counters (moving to scan or bag groceries, for instance). I was sad that I lost the steps but I made some adjustments to how I wore it (waistband position) and checked on it more frequently to keep closer track of steps walked (in case it reset) and that seemed to help. About 3 weeks into using it I tried to tilt it up on my waistband to read it, as I had done many times before, and ended up snapping the clip and losing a couple of spring-type pieces that helped it clip (probably - I was in a dark environment at the time and relied on streetlights to find what parts I could). That was disappointing but ultimately my fault / mishap. I thought perhaps I would get an "upgrade" to a pedometer with cover, as I have seen them before. However, all the pedometers with covers I've found so far either didn't have the features of the Pingko (steps taken, calories burned, distance covered, time clock, which I had begun to appreciate); and/or weren't in my budget, and/or didn't have a lot of favorable reviews. So, I ended up buying a second Pingko pedometer, and we'll see how long the second one lasts before it has a permanent mishap. P.S. The Pingko had fallen off my waistband a few times prior, usually onto a hard concrete floor (from a height of about 33 inches) -- and made it just fine (still working). It was simply the way I tilted it that night, I think, that broke the clip. In conclusion - I am impressed with the features, the price point, the seeming accuracy, and -- gosh darn it absolutely -- the fact that I do not need a mobile app or a smartphone to use this. Whoo hoo! So I am buying another for now and then we'll reevaluate when needed.

I really want to like this little pedometer. It's just what I wanted: easy to use and set up with a large digital screen that I can see without having my glasses on. However, now that I've used it for over a month, I can say for certain that it doesn't capture all my steps. I mainly walk, and only if I'm walking fast do I feel that it is accurate. It's the middle of summer in Texas right now, and sometimes I just want to go take a 20 minute walk but REALLY slowly, y'know? Because it's hot as heck right now. If I go out for a slow stroll for 20 minutes, I'll come back and the pedometer will only track like 200 steps when in reality I went somewhere between 1/4 and 1/2 mile. I guess the little mechanism inside that clicks whenever you take a step only works with steps that have more impact. I've tried wearing it on different points around my waistband but to no avail. I just can't get it to track me accurately. So, I've stopped bothering to wear it, unfortunately. I really wanted to like it. That said, if you're using it for jogging, I think it would be terrific. It's light and unobtrusive and would likely be very functional for you.

Awesome product. Works great for tracking. Been through the wash by accident a few times, still working..

Très bon rapport qualité. Prix fonctionne très bien.

No pesa, es muy comodo y aunque esta la hora, me gustaria que diera o marcara el tiempo del ejercicio

Not good enough. Does not record all the steps taken. No date-wise reports too. Disappointed with the purchase.

Would like to give 4 half stars but not possible. Set up was OK, but instructions miss out the setting the stride length. but seems to have a base of around 30 inches i presume, but works for my stride. Easy to use and clear the saved distance. It has the time, but does not calculate time been walking. The results seem good, have mapped my walk to google maps and the mileage is as good as spot on. Again good for what i need, just to see what I'm doing. The case has suffered scratches, but not sure from what as was wearing fleece shorts and a t-shirt, but not the end of the world. The clip seems ok, and worn it as advised around waist level. Time will tell how long it lasts.
