Comparison between iPhone 5 and Galaxy S3? Which is better with a MacBook?

I have an upgrade in the next month and am going to college next fall. With my major I'm required to purchase a Macbook computer and am wondering what the pros and cons are of getting the iPhone or S3 over another and if one would connect better / make it easier in any way?

Well if you need to buy a MacBook, you might as well buy an iPhone 5 because they are the same brand. The Galaxy S3 is better than an iPhone, but still, I think you should just get the iPhone.

I have a Windows 8 laptop and I'm going to get a Windows Phone 8 soon because they go together nicely.

I think iPhone is better because you get a MacBook which could play Blu-ray Disc with the help of a blu-ray driver and Macgo Mac Blu-ray Player. So your iPhone may be connected with your MacBook then enjoy the movie on your iPhone. Just a suggestion.

The iPhone will work beautifully with a MacBook (whichever you get; Pro or Air). The S3 will work decently, but it won't be as seamless as the Apple-to-Apple experience. In addition, the iPhone is a superior phone to the S3, which a much better operating system and a beautiful design.
