Given the current state on the US arriving with a burner phone, or even a clean one, would at least get you interrogated, and at worst deported to Guantanamo. Better leave something innocuous on the phone that makes it look used.
My employer gives everyone in management a cell phone. At least once a quarter someone from management has to travel across the border to do site visits and the like. Most people will only carry the work phone when traveling because of CBP and TSA inspections.
