I wonder if the J-XDS actually have LERX type structure that blends right from the nose to the root of the main wing. Or maybe the whole nose section is a lifting body design.

Self-explanatory.

Is it the angle of orientation and silhouette, or is this the first picture* we have of it with landing gear retracted?

*(that I can recall)

I originally thought that without canards and with the main wing positioned very far back, the center of lift would also be far aft, causing a nose-down tendency. But judging from the deflection angle of the all-moving wingtips, they seem to be constantly pushing the nose down. Is it because the strake near the nose generates significant lift?

Generally with unstable designs, the more positive AoA the more pitch down moment is needed. You can see it with J-20 or J-10 as well, in positive AoA the canards would pitch downwards to keep the nose down.

Yes, the strake/fat nose whatever you call it is definitely contributing lift

This seems to be the same video as the one posted before, just with the video tilted 90 degrees to the right.

Well, its clearly very different to the J-XS we know. In fact, it looks vaguely similar to the original JH-XX concept. Perhaps its related to the teapot and teacups?
