It would be nice, but the phone would have to be unlocked at the same time you try to authenticate on the computer for this to work. Part of why it works with the watch is that you have to have an unlocked (but pin-lockable) watch near the computer. Most of the time when you're wearing the watch it will be unlocked (this is the default behavior, after unlocking it stays unlocked while worn) whereas the phone will relock itself. So it would be useful, if you happened to have already unlocked your phone near your laptop, but probably not as consistently useful as the watch. Most of the time, you'd find yourself unlocking your phone to unlock your computer which is not really convenient, so you'll just unlock the computer itself.
