I get the upset over the battery, but it seems everyone missed this:
No charging: The battery lasts for up to years of average use. After the end of its life, send your ring back to us for recycling.
I’d hope they offer a discount on a new one if you send in your old.

I’d hope they offer a discount on a new one if you send in your old. Eh. If they did, they’d probably mention it somewhere.

Nobody knows if this company will be around in a year. The watches will continue to be usable and versatile. The ring won’t.

I like Pebble, but I’ve been on the gadget rollercoaster too many times and until it’s proven and quantified ‘years of average use’ means nothing.

There’s no guarantee they will even be around to recycle the rings in two years time. The way tech companies are going these days it’s probably not very likely.
