Are these two products alternatives?

No. One is a wall outlet with a USB-C port; the other is a laptop. They serve unrelated needs and are not substitutes.

Which is better for charging a phone?

The Elegrp. Its 30W USB-C port charges phones and tablets directly from the wall. The MacBook Air can charge a phone from its Thunderbolt ports but is far more expensive for that job.

The MacBook Air has a defined lifespan tied to its battery and software support; expect several years of macOS updates. The Elegrp has no battery and should outlast a laptop if installed correctly, but it has only 10 ratings to judge reliability.

Is the MacBook Air M3 15 worth $814.95?

It is a solid price for a 15-inch M3 Air, 38% off the $1,321.00 regular price. Check the 8GB RAM and 256GB storage against your workload before buying.

Is the Elegrp a good deal at $19.04?

Yes, it is 44% under the $34.00 typical price. Confirm your wall box and wiring support a 15A receptacle before installing.

Can the MacBook Air charge from the Elegrp outlet?

Yes, but slowly. The 30W port will charge the Air far slower than its included charger, so it suits top-ups, not full charges.
