I’m currently cold-weather camping, and I’m worried my phone will freeze.
EDIT: Felt like I needed to clarify this, it’s about 35° F, or 1.6° C.

Batteries and electrolytic capacitors might be the most vulnerable things, followed by anything mechanical that could go out of tolerances from thermal contraction. In some cases, solder joints can also break from mechanical stress from thermal expansion/contraction. Anything that could be exposed to moisture may also present problems, but that’s due to icing and water expanding as it freezes. The rest probably has much less issues.
It’s one of those things where it falls into “It depends…”
