FYI: Mine had the same problem after about 3 months - I suspect it is little to do with the battery, but more to do with the capacitive buttons. Mine would "work" until I used the buttons a little and then lock up in the manner you described. Touching parts of the lower case a couple cm away from the sensors would also trigger the sensors. If the DR got far enough past the boot process for me to "lock" the sensors, then the DR was sort of usable. I suspect a stream of spurious/out-of-bounds sensor triggers resulting in the DR giving up and flashing red, etc, is more likely the situation (at least for me). Depending on how bad the triggers were, determined how far one got through the boot process.
Mine is now currently in transit to me after a repair under waranty (support was helpful and fast).
Hopefully, this is the last I/we see of this particular issue.
