Would anyone be able to tell me what model is the LED strip that comes with the 4d mirror setup? As in WS2812B, or SK6812? A link to a guide that explains how to tell them all apart through visual inspection would be really cool. any kind of help will be highly appreciated. TIA

The LED strip in the 4D mirror setup is most commonly WS2812B or SK6812, but it depends on the manufacturer.

To visually inspect and differentiate:

WS2812B: Has 4 pins (VCC, GND, DIN, DOUT) and individual ICs inside each LED.
SK6812: Similar to WS2812B but supports RGBW (extra white LED channel).
Check for small markings on the ICs or compare PCB layouts.

For a guide, this article explains the differences well:
