Maybe Apple will rethink their plan to release a ring as it will be vulnerable to the same issue. I just dont get the whole smart ring crave. I'm not really found of smart watches either but I can at least see their appeal to some people as they do provide several useful functions

Considering people are "probably" wearing these things 24/7...who knows if they've gotten wet in the shower, doing dishes, washing the car, swimming etc. Probably water resistant, but who knows how these things are treated in real life.

A swollen battery in the Samsung Galaxy Note 7 has caused a fire, and swollen battery on the ring the ring is now stuck. This suggests a recurring issue with the device’s battery.

Two completely different battery types. Your insistent desire for attention by slinging mud is legendary. Apple has also has also had Iphone batteries swelling and catching fire. It is not the manufacturer, its the technology. I will let the results of a Google search on "have iphone batteries ever caught fire" this speak for itself

Although extremely rare, iPhone batteries have exploded and caught fire due to manufacturing defects, physical damage, or overheating. These incidents can happen with both original and third-party batteries, with factors like internal damage from physical impact or external heat contributing to the risk. While Apple includes safety features, the volatile nature of lithium-ion batteries means a risk, however small, always exists.

Rest assured that there are no significant defects in Apple devices. Bugs yes every platform has them but not defects thats for sure.While Samsung and Pixel devices may have hardware defects, Apple devices are generally reliable and have a reputation for durability. That you can bank on it.

Google searches will not reveal articles discussing hardware defects in Apple devices, unlike Samsung and Pixel devices. Gemini will not display any such information, unlike other OEMs.

Boy are you wrong on this subject.

I assure you that I am not at all. I acknowledge that there are always defects and issues, but Samsung and Google tend to exaggerate them. Every single Samsung device has defect issues. It is quite astonishing.

It is astonishing that a Google search for Samsung vs Apple defects reveals that every single S series since the S20 has them. If that is not remarkable, I do not know what is. However, Google does not provide any defects on the Apple device. I wonder why? What is your justification for this? Is Google incorrect? Will you use that as an excuse?
