Fitbit Blaze vs Omron Alvita Ultimate Pedometer

The Fitbit Blaze fitness tracker is feature-rich and tracks steps, calories burned, distance traveled, active minutes, floors climbed, heart-rate, and sleep time.

The Fitbit Blaze is a great option for outdoor use thanks to how easy it is to see the display even in bright sunlight.
The clear and bright display uses plenty of color for better clarity.

If you don't like the basic rubber wrist strap the comes with the tracker, you can change out the strap for more premium options.

There are many different styles available including leather, silicone, or stainless steel in a variety of colors.

While it varies somewhat, many people have been reporting that the fitness tracker usually lasts 5 full days on a single charge.
In general, the more features a tracker has, the faster it will drain the battery. 4 or 5 days is an impressive charge compared to other trackers with similar features (continuous heart rate tracking for example).

The Blaze has a techie look to it that some may find a nice change from the usual sporty-appearance of trackers.
It is fairly lightweight and the design isn't offensive, it's something you can wear every day.

Omron Ultimate pedometer has a large readable display and big distinct buttons, making it a great option for the elderly who want to keep fit.

The pedometer is small and unnoticeable. You can put it in your pocket or attach to your belt without worrying if it's going to ruin your outfit.

Omron Ultimate Pedometer records total steps per day, aerobic steps, calories burned, and distance walked.

Omron pedometer is very small and light (it weighs less than an ounce). Once you put it in your pocket, you will hardly feel it.

When you're walking more than 60 steps per minute for more than 10 minutes, Omron counts that as Aerobic steps. They have the most impact on your calorie burn, so tracking them helps to better monitor your fitness progress.

To get the most accurate fitness data, you can input your height and weight into the tracker. It then calculates your stride length and uses it to more precisely record your data - steps total and distance traveled. Alternatively, you can set your stride length manually.

The screen automatically turns off after 5 minutes since the last button was pressed. The sensor still keeps counting and recording steps, so no progress is lost.

The battery of this Omron pedometer lasts about 6 months.

The tracker comes with a separate holder that can be attached to your belt/hip for convenient wear.

Thanks to the tri-axis technology, Omron pedometer accurately tracks your steps regardless of how it’s positioned – vertically, horizontally, or otherwise. You can put it in your pocket or just drop it into your bag or purse and be sure that you get precise fitness stats.
