i can't see any afterburner in those photos, unless you're referring to the last picture which shows the heat plume from the heat of the engine but that still doesn't seem to be afterburner...

edit: or are you referring to the second picture? I can see how the inside of the exhaust appears a little bit red but I"m not sure if that is afterburner let alone full afterburner... I'd expect a much bigger and more obvious trail than that, maybe with some shock diamonds

e.g: in this video we can see the kind of exhaust that J-20 can have I think with afterburner seen at take off and during the turn, and though it is at night which makes the exhaust much more obvious, I do not think J-20 in any of the pics from Zhuhai show it engaging afterburner like that
