I lost my phone once. It was a Motorola Moto Q. It was in the middle of the winter and I had no idea where it went. Come Spring my sister-in-law was in our back yard and found it. It fell out of my pocket when under the stairs leading off the back porch. It was caked in dirt so I cleaned it off then plugged it in and it started charging. Still works today but it's not what I use now. I was impressed it survived the weather laying in the dirt outside.
