Default [Q] Help me choose between this and..

Hello!

I'm looking for a new phone around the price range of evo 3d.
Could anyone suggest which phone would suit my needs most
from the following:

Evo3d
Optimus 2x
GalaxyS+
Xperia arc

What I'm looking for:
Best battery life, Display quality and contrast,
Smooth Skype video calling and Web browsing.

They all costs around the same where I from so price isn't
the issue.

Skype video: Yes. And it works very well. I have used it to talk to my wife in the states many times, it works very well.
Display quality: Very good display, nice and bright 800 * 480. Some say that they get 'backlight bleed' though. The display has les resolution than the Evo 3D, but it's a better display and brighter.
Battery life: Should last a working day on moderate to heavy usage. Over a day on light usage. Like other phones, you can buy very cheap extended batteries.
Web Browsing: Very quick and smooth.
At some point as a professional developer I'm actually going to try writing something/working with/for Android... so far.. I've managed Hello World LOL.
LG Optimus 2x P990: SOLD :(

Ye I also looked at 3d benchmark test
and Evo has like 2292 and
2x has 2777.. also I'm not sure I like that 3d function which evo has,
i rather go with 1080p video recording...

Trouble with that is price. the LG 2X and the 4x are likely to cost between £200 to £300 more than the cost of the phones he has listed.
