Step sensor listener doesn't receive real steps number

I have a simple app that listens for steps. I use STEP COUNTER sensor for that purpose. But results are horrible. For example

    sensorManager = (SensorManager) context.getSystemService(SENSOR_SERVICE);
    stepCounter = sensorManager.getDefaultSensor(Sensor.TYPE_STEP_COUNTER);
    sensorManager.registerListener(this, stepCounter, SensorManager.SENSOR_DELAY_UI,(int) TimeUnit.SECONDS.toMicros(10));

is detecting only 10 - 30 % of steps. And it doesn't depend on latency or batching. Results on Samsung S9 are even worse. I tried to use Activity context, hoping to improve results but it didn't help. Does someone have ideas?
