In the USA, if somebody wants you dead, they'll just shoot you. Or put a bomb in your car.
Going through the effort of compromising a supply chain and creating fake devices with explosives is way too much work. You're a very soft target. Getting to you is easy.
Israel used such a complicated way to get at its enemies because their targets are harder. They are militants at war. It's get to get physically close to them, and they are on the lookout for assassination attempts.
If for some reason they felt compelled to get at you through your device that way, it wouldn't be a phone. Those are too densely packed to put explosives inside and still function as you expect. They can't get to your specific phone before it's sold to you.
But if you're worried about all the ways somebody could kill you, you're completely out of luck. If somebody really wanted you dead, you'd be dead.
