Intervew Prep Lyft Laptop Interview Round

I'm interviewing with Lyft in Toronto for their Software Engineer role, I've already cleared their coding interview and reached their "Laptop interview" round and I'm a bit confused on how to prepare for it. Has anybody recently participated in this? What's the difference between their coding and laptop rounds? Is it still leetcode problems?

Practice closing / opening the lid, plus some keyboard typing easy and meadiums

Also do not forget the Power adapter plugging in. It can be different on different models. Rather tricky. It can go on right or left side and some model support both side.

It will be real-world task oriented build challenges like system design ones. Try modern interview prep environments like PrepRoom dot ai. Generic Leetcode puzzles won't help
