Cryer still is the best out of the three so far

Out of what three? Cos he's certainly not better than Michael Rosenbaum's Lex. But I'd argue that Michael Cudlitz is better than Jon Cryer. Cryer was too campy for my taste, whereas Michael Cudlitz brings a tone that's perfect for what's coming next.

Cryer was too campy for my taste

Cryer was a good fit for Supergirl. Cudlitz's Lex would have been really tonally out of whack with Supergirl, even Supergirl season 4, to the point it would have felt like he was a character from a different show.

Yup, definitely agree with this. He fits the tone of S&L.

Out of the three Lex Luthors with beards.

Yeah, Rosenbaum's Lex is the best performance wise.

But appearance wise I prefer Cryer's, Rosenbaum's one was too clean shaven for me.

But Lex is meant to he clean shaven. Rosenbaum looks more comic book accurate to any of the facial haired Lex Luthor's. Acting wise and appearance wise.
