Clearest view of China's second 6th gen fighter design, this one is designed by SAC.
It's smaller with a 2 engine set up, it's also a tailless flying wing design, albeit more conventional compared to the CAC's 3 engine design.
From the looks of it, this SAC design is more agile, may very well be better suited for carrier operation.

I'm surprised people with knowledge of military equipment is impressed.
The thing is: anyone, including Iran, can make an airframe. Even a flying one.
The thing is, what is important is its subsystems. As Papa said: 3 engines doesn't instill much confidence.
But good on China being able to design a chassis....
Chances are these are flying labs trying to test certain functions and airframe designs.
