The most affordable protector in the range, available for a huge list of iPhones with four style options.
If you have an older iPhone or just do not want to pay Gen 3 money, Gen 2 is the better deal. The page shows models from the iPhone 6/7/8/SE all the way up to the iPhone 18 Pro Max, in four styles: HD, Privacy, AR-HD and AR-Privacy. The listing describes 9H tempered glass, automatic dust removal and bubble-free installation, and buyers rate it 4.71 out of 5 across 295 ratings. Prices run from $20.99 up to $26.99 depending on style and model. The listing does not give as many technical details as Gen 3 (no drop-test or clarity numbers that I could find), so you are buying on the strength of the ratings.
Gen 2 is the second-generation protector and shares the brand's dust-free, bubble-free promise. What makes it interesting is the sheer range: compatibility is listed for iPhone 6 through 18 models, and the styles include AR options, which most budget protectors do not offer. There is a separate Galaxy version of the Gen 2 in the lineup.
It is the cheapest of the MAGIC JOHN protectors covered here, with the top-priced style at $26.99.
Models listed include older phones like the iPhone 8 and SE as well as the latest iPhone 18 Pro and Pro Max.
Four options let you choose between clear, anti-spy, and anti-reflection versions of each.
The listing describes automatic dust removal and bubble-free installation, with an alignment and cleaning kit shown in the product photos.
