Binitarianism - the Holy Spirit isn't really a focus here one way or the other. They would agree with #1 that Jesus pre-existed mortality as God, but would disagree with the Trinitarian view of the Holy Spirit.
Latter-day Saint view - Jesus is Jehovah who spoke to Moses as recorded in Exodus 3. He pre-existed mortality as Deity and is a separate Being from God Father. They are one in mission, but not one in substance.
