The SU-57 must be a beautiful plane, sure. But being faster than the F-22 with a less powerful engine is pretty strange. That's just a question, there is a long time we don't compare fighter only by their speed.
A fighter is a full complex system which is impossible to check just by the outside. I have no opinion on that because I don't know it.
Speed is a detail but infrared is not. The SU-57 is much more agile than the F-22 with its 3D orientable nozzle, but that's hard to say it's not giving a lot of infrared which is a dangerous weakness.
