The K4 Pro is the 96% with a steel plate, PBT keycaps and QMK/VIA at about 1280 g. Evidence is limited to the maker page and sibling Pro reviews.
Sources
Our take, based on research
A mod-friendly 96% for wired and Bluetooth use. Evidence is thin.
Overview
The K4 Pro is the QMK/VIA edition of the 96% K4. The page lists Bluetooth with 1000 Hz polling, hot-swappable K Pro switches, an ABS tray-mount case, a steel plate, double-shot PBT keycaps, a 4000 mAh battery, 22 RGB effects and about 1280 g with N-key rollover in both wireless and wired modes.
No K4 Pro review was found. Tom's Hardware's K8 Pro review, which shares the Pro platform, found stiff tray-mount typing, slick OSA keycaps, poor Bluetooth and inconsistent sound, and little upgrade over the standard K8. AppleInsider's K10 Pro review, the 100% sibling, took a friendlier line, calling the Pro an affordable all-rounder.
It is the K4 for QMK/VIA customizers who stay on Bluetooth or wired; the Max adds a dongle.
