The Digiwalker 701 counts steps. It estimates distance based on your average stride length, which you can set in increments of .25 feet. I found it to be accurate for steps when worn at a spot on your belt or waistband where it could hang vertically. It estimates calories burned based on your weight without regard to your speed. As such, it may give a different estimate than other methods. It is so small and lightweight that a child or an adult can wear it all day comfortably, and I have even slept with it on. It is simple to set and easy to move between the step count, distance, and calorie modes. It is easy to change the stride length and the weight. The case protects the buttons from being accidentally reset.
The upgraded version, the CW-701 includes 7-day daily memory and 2-week totals for steps, distance, calories, and activity time. I would recommend the upgraded version vs. the SW-701.
