Previously I'd agree. All the electrical equipment is heavily shielded. Mythbusters tested it even. They had to go to a plane junkyard and get some navigation guts with the shielding removed and internals exposed to get a reaction.

However today given how shoddy some of these planes are, I'd rather not find out if the electronics shielding is just another part they skimped on for profit margins.
Honestly, the bigger risk is the object itself. A phone is a projectile in the wrong conditions and takeoff/landing is where the overwhelming majority of issues arise.
