Some demonstrative embodiments include apparatuses, systems and/or methods of estimating an orientation of a mobile device. For example, an apparatus may include an orientation estimator to receive an indication of first and second consecutive steps of a user carrying a mobile device, to determine an angular rotation of an orientation parameter between the first and second steps, and to determine a value of the orientation parameter based on a comparison between the angular rotation and at least one predefined angular rotation threshold.
