Faraday bags work just like this. i have a few. but phones don't just explode without a bomb planted in it, and the batteries aren't like high capacity ones.. so even if they explode the damage is limited.
From what I understand the devices were stuffed with small amounts of plastic explosives, smartphones generally don't have much room in them to stuff a meaningful amount of anything in them, but it's not impossible they could cause your device to catch fire somehow
