What's the best Advanced Learner's English dictionary as an iPhone 5c app?

Since I'm planning to spend money on this dictionary, I'm expecting these features:
1. Tenses for verbs (must be included)
2. Plural form for nouns (must be included)
3. Off-line pronunciation ("Off-line" is optional, but pronunciation must be included. And I hope it's not so robotic.)
4. Examples for different meanings (must)

I found these available on my iTunes:
Cambridge Advanced Learner's Dictionary $15.99 Audio version is $21.99
Collins COBUILD Advanced Dictionary (6th edition, 2009) $9.9
Longman Dictionary of Contemporary English 9.99
Oxford Advanced Learner's Dictionary $30.99

I use Collins COBUILD on my computer. I'm very happy with Collins, but I'm not sure if the app is as good as the computer version. Please help me out. Any advice will be appreciated.

Added (1). Fuzzy search is also a great feature. Tell me about your experience with these dictionary apps.

I don't want to do this for a living i just want to make one app. It would be great if you could point me in the right direction or if you know yourself that would be great as well.
