Can't decide between these 3.

Alright, so I've had a Nokia 5230 for a while now, and i'd love to try out a high-end smartphone.
I've looked around a bit at the features, prices and the overall look of the phones and i'm now torn between 3 of them.
HTC EVO 3D (~$660)
HTC Sensation (maybe XE?) ($600)
and Samsung Galaxy S II ($600)
I've watched dozen reviews showcasing each of them, also in videos one vs the other, but still can't decide.
I often read that HTC has a better interface, is that true? Hard to tell from the videos, would need at least a couple days of using it to tell.
Is it worth it getting the 3D one? As far as i can tell, that's the only + it has, watching the 3d movies, capturing 3d pictures, videos, but it's only for myself, can't send the 3d ones to anyone, they'd be gibberish and unwatchable.
The Sensation just seems visually more pleasing to look at, although they say it has a lesser battery life.


Anyone ever had to make a choice between them?


EDIT: Or maybe even wait for the galaxy nexus?
 
Galaxy S2 or Galaxy Nexus. HTC Sense is battery and RAM intensive and it doesn't have GPU acceleration. ICS does though.

The camera on the SGS2 is by far superior and it's screen is amazing. 3D on a small screen is pointless and the 3DS will prove that.
 
Depending on your carrier. If you are with Verizon Wireless, you should wait for the Galaxy Nexus which is just around the corner. If you are with the other carriers, you should take the Galaxy S II variant now.
 
I've held the evo 3d and I hated it. The evos are so bulky and the 3d gave me headaches. It was like looking at those holographic baseball cards that "moved"

I went with the galaxy sii and couldn't be happier. The clearest and biggest screen available and its super fast.
 
Touch Wiz 4 does not blow.
And HTC has a few super security issues "that we know about".

Go with the winner Samsung Galaxy S2
