Comments about Sakar Sakar Xtreme Sports Pedometer/Stopwatch:

Received this as part of a package purchase unexpectedly, which we thought would be great as my most recent pedometer had broken and I hadn't replaced it yet. Unfortunately, I didn't find it to be very user friendly, and the fact that it is to be used on your arm and doesn't have an option to be clipped at the waist made it an overall unappealing gadget for me.

Comments about Sakar Sakar Xtreme Sports Pedometer/Stopwatch:

I prefer to clip pedometers to my waistline so the armband was not useful. The unit did not seem to register some steps, especially when running over uneven terrain. There are other pedometers with more features in a smaller package that are more accurate.

Comments about Sakar Sakar Xtreme Sports Pedometer/Stopwatch:

I got this free with a purchase. It says is a "pedometer armband radio" which it isn't. The strap doesn't work. It's hard to figure out from the instructions. I gave it to my daughter to play with and she doesn't even want it because it doesn't work right. Don't buy this. It's a waste of money.

Comments about Sakar Sakar Xtreme Sports Pedometer/Stopwatch:

This device arrived in a package that contained instructions for use that were written in a broken English pattern. The pictures on the instruction sheet looked nothing like the device in the package.
In short, the instructions were useless. Fortunately, during a short time of trial and error I was able to figure out how it worked.
I used the included belt clip to attach it to my sock, and after a short walk to test it out, something inside the case had broken and was rattling around. the noise was distracting but the device continued to work despite the broken part. So if you try this device, wear it on your waistband or in a pocket, to keep it from being bumped around on a part of your leg that exposes it to extreme shock. I was never able to get the stopwatch to work at all.
The device appears to be cheaply made and not ready to stand up to the stress of normal use.

Comments about Sakar Sakar Xtreme Sports Pedometer/Stopwatch:

I was very dissapointed in the Xtreme Sports Pedometer. It was so cheap and didn't even work. The only way it would have worked was if I was jogging and bouncing VERY hard.[...] and in the Bin it goes... also it was very large! I was quite surprised. I had never seen one that big before. If you have to pay for this, I would suggest you don't. I don't think I have ever written a review like this before, but this product REALLY needs some help.
