According to Ifixit  it is not possible to  repair the Ring, if the Battery dies there is no way to replace the Battery without destroying the Device and the rest of the components are soldiered on.

The article includes a  scan https://www.ifixit.com/News/98423/samsungs-galaxy-ring-revealed 

perhaps not a great surprise for something so intricate, of course will not be in the minds of the biggest fans really.

I do not work for Samsung or make Samsung Products but provide independent advice and valuable contributions.

Very interesting read James. Didn't know that the smaller the ring, the lower the capacity of the battery.

Yes,a lot of detail. Personally have not been sold yet but The Ring has a strong marketing strategy.

Throw away after 400 charging cycles...hmmmm. At £400 a pop, marketed for the wealthy, I think.

Not news that will help potential Ring buyers.

Same here I fine the Ring product placement confusing and it not offering enough if you have a watch.

Size 12 each full charge goes for 10 days with 15% battery left.
So, the 400 charge cycle is at minimum 4000 days.
Don't think I will keep it for that long.
