smd ceramic capacitors soldered on electronic boards of devices if these devices are stored in the long term for an indefinite period of time, will these smd ceramic capacitors change values and lose capacitance and will these two cause the capacitor to die during storage?

As far as I know only electrolytics are of concern for long periods of storage.

ceramic, no, they shouldn't change by any appreciable amount unless something causes them to corrode or something.
What can happen though is they can crack and fail, depending on how they are handled.

We're not going these stupid 'doubt' titled threads again. Locked.

@gamer1987 , if you start another, you'll get a warning.
