Leaked renders offer an early look at Samsung's official Galaxy Z Flip 7 cases
TL;DR Samsung may offer four official cases and a screen protector for the upcoming Galaxy Z Flip 7.
The clamshell foldable could get a basic clear case with a grip, a clear magnet case, a silicone case in four colorways, and a Kindsuit case in three finishes.
Unlike the Galaxy Z Fold 7, the cheaper foldable may not get an official carbon fiber case.
Hot on the heels of a leak revealing Samsung's official Galaxy Z Fold 7 cases, a new report has unveiled the full lineup of accessories expected for the Galaxy Z Flip 7. If accurate, the compact foldable could launch with four case options and an anti-reflective screen protector.
Android Headlines has managed to dig up official renders of the Galaxy Z Flip 7 accessories, which give us an early look at the device's clear case, clear magnet case, silicone case, Kindsuit case, and anti-reflective film. The clear magnet case appears to be the only new addition, while the remaining options look the same as the ones Samsung offered with last year's Galaxy Z Flip 6.
The clear case is a minimal two-piece case that protects both halves of the device and features a ring-shaped grip on the bottom half. The clear magnet case replaces this grip with a ring of magnets that will make the Flip 7 compatible with Qi2 chargers and accessories. Both cases feature a raised lip at the top to protect the cameras from scratches.
Except for its material, the silicone case looks nearly identical to the regular clear case. Samsung may offer it in black, blue, coral red, and mint color options that match the rumored Flip 7 colorways.
While Samsung appears to have swapped the Kindsuit case with a new Carbon Shield case in its Fold 7 accessory lineup, its cheaper foldable doesn't seem to be getting a similar upgrade. The company will still offer a Kindsuit case for the device in black, taupe, and camel colorways.
Lastly, Samsung will release an anti-reflective screen protector for the Flip 7's larger cover screen, featuring a pill-shaped camera cutout. It will ship with an alignment tool for easy application, a squeegee, a microfiber cloth, and dust removal stickers.
Although Samsung hasn't made major changes to the case lineup for its clamshell foldable, that might not be a bad thing, since last year's designs offer solid, all-around protection. The same can't be said for Samsung's official Galaxy Z Fold 7 cases, which may only protect the device's back panel.

Meet Soham Parekh, the engineer burning through tech by working at three to four startups simultaneously
One name is popping up a lot across tech startup social media right now, and you might've heard it: Soham Parekh. On X, people are joking that Parekh is single-handedly holding up all modern digital infrastructure, while others are posting memes about him working in front of a dozen different monitors or filling in for the thousands of people that Microsoft just laid off. From what social media posts suggest, Parekh is actually a software engineer who seems to have interviewed at dozens of tech startups over the years, while also juggling multiple jobs at the same time. Several startups had this revelation on July 2nd, when Suhail Doshi, founder of the AI design tool Playground, posted a PSA on X, saying: PSA: there's a guy named Soham Parekh (in India) who works at 3-4 startups at the same time. He's been preying on YC companies and more. Beware. I fired this guy in his first week and told him to stop lying / scamming people. He hasn't stopped a year later. No more excuses. Doshi's post was quickly flooded with replies that included similar stories. 'We interviewed this guy too, but caught this during references checks,' Variant founder Ben South said. 'Turns out he had 5-6 profiles each with 5+ places he actually worked at.' When asked what tipped him off about Parekh, South told The Verge that his suspicions arose during Parekh's interview, prompting his team to do a reference check earlier than they usually would. 'That's when we learned he was working multiple jobs,' South said. Parekh's resume and pitch email look good at first glance, which helps him garner interest from multiple companies. 'He had a prolific GitHub contribution graph and prior startup experience,' Marcus Lowe, founder of the AI app builder Create, told The Verge. 'He was also extremely technically strong during our interview process.' Just one day after this all unfolded, Parekh came forward in an interview with the daily tech show TBPN. Parekh confirmed what many tech startup founders had suspected: he had been working for multiple companies at the same time. 'I'm not proud of what I've done. That's not something I endorse either. But no one really likes to work 140 hours a week, I had to do it out of necessity,' Parekh said. 'I was in extremely dire financial circumstances.' Parekh seems to have made a good first impression on many people. Digger CEO Igor Zalutski said his company 'nearly hired him,' as he 'seemed so sharp' during interviews, while cofounder Justin Harvey similarly said that he was 'THIS close to hiring him,' adding that 'he actually crushed the interview.' Vapi cofounder Jordan Dearsley said Parekh 'was the best technical interview' he's seen, but he 'did not deliver on his projects.' The startups that did hire Parekh didn't seem to keep him around for long. Lowe said that he noticed something was off when Parekh kept making excuses to push back his start date. After telling Lowe that he had to delay working because he had a trip planned to see his sister in New York, Parekh later claimed that he couldn't start working following the trip because he was sick. 'For whatever reason, something just felt off,' Lowe said. That's when Lowe visited Parekh's GitHub profile and realized he was committing code to a private repository during the time he was supposed to be sick. Lowe also found recent commits to another San Francisco-based startup. 'Did some digging, noticed that he was in some of their marketing materials,' Lowe said. 'I was like, 'Huh, but he didn't declare this on his resume. This feels weird.'' Create ended up letting Parekh go after he failed to complete an assignment. It looks like Parekh even had a stint at Meta. In 2021, the company published a post highlighting his story as a contributor working on mixed-reality experiences in WebXR. In the post, Parekh said that he found 'that the best way to get better at software development is to not only practice it but to use it to solve real world problems.' Meta didn't immediately respond to The Verge's request for comment. Parekh's purported scheme may have been uncovered, but his outlook might not be all bad — if you believe him. Parekh claims he landed a job at Darwin, an AI video remixing startup. 'Earlier today, I signed an exclusive founding deal to be founding engineer at one company and one company only,' Parekh posted on X. 'They were the only ones willing to bet on me at this time.'

Tariffs and Tech: How Exposed Is Comfort Systems' Project Pipeline?
As tariff headlines rattle the construction and tech sectors, Comfort Systems USA FIX finds itself at the intersection of both. With 37% of its first-quarter 2025 revenue tied to advanced tech projects—including data centers and semiconductor fabs—the company's exposure to trade policy uncertainty is real, especially as materials and equipment costs come under Comfort Systems management emphasized that most large project costs are locked in early, with pricing based on solid quotes from suppliers. The company also benefits from strong relationships with customers who are often willing to share inflation risks. So far, suppliers' price hikes remain within typical ranges, and there's no evidence of sticker shock or project delays stemming from the latest round of Systems' scale, diversified backlog, and disciplined project selection help cushion macro shocks. A record $6.9 billion backlog, up 16% year over year on a same-store basis, reflects strong momentum, especially in tech and institutional markets. The company's teams are already booking into 2026, with healthcare construction gaining ground as a new growth management remains cautious and acknowledges the fluid macro environment, they see no letup in demand for mechanical and electrical contracting in complex builds. In the near term, tariffs may cause localized cost shifts, but Comfort Systems' execution, margin discipline, and customer relationships appear strong enough to absorb the impact. Comfort Systems isn't alone in navigating tariff-related uncertainty in tech-driven construction. EMCOR Group EME, a larger peer, also derives significant revenue from mechanical and electrical contracting across commercial, institutional, and industrial sectors. Like Comfort Systems, EMCOR is exposed to material cost inflation and relies heavily on pre-bid pricing to protect margins. Its size and diversified portfolio give it resilience, but tech project delays—especially in semiconductor and data center investments—could pressure Holdings LMB, a smaller competitor, is more narrowly focused on mechanical systems for institutional and healthcare clients. While its lower exposure to hyperscale tech may reduce tariff vulnerability, its tighter margins and smaller scale offer less flexibility to absorb cost shocks. Unlike Comfort Systems, LMB lacks the geographic breadth and backlog depth to hedge against rapid policy shifts. In contrast, Comfort Systems' execution scale and customer diversity continue to give it a relative advantage amid an unpredictable tariff landscape. Comfort Systems stock has gained 78.8% in the past three months, outpacing the industry and the S&P 500's rise of 33.9% and 22.9%, respectively. Image Source: Zacks Investment Research The stock is currently trading at a discount compared with the industry peers, with a forward 12-month price-to-earnings ratio of 26.7X. Image Source: Zacks Investment Research Comfort Systems' earnings estimates for 2025 and 2026 have trended upward in the past 60 days to $19.28 per share and to $20.41, respectively. The estimated figures for 2025 and 2026 indicate 32.1% and 5.8% year-over-year growth, respectively. Image Source: Zacks Investment Research Comfort Systems currently holds a Zacks Rank #2 (Buy).

Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company Ltd. (TSM) Hits Fresh High: Is There Still Room to Run?
Have you been paying attention to shares of TSMC (TSM)? Shares have been on the move with the stock up 15.4% over the past month. The stock hit a new 52-week high of $233.82 in the previous session. TSMC has gained 18.3% since the start of the year compared to the 7% gain for the Zacks Computer and Technology sector and the 18.3% return for the Zacks Semiconductor - Circuit Foundry industry. The stock has a great record of positive earnings surprises, having beaten the Zacks Consensus Estimate in each of the last four quarters. In its last earnings report on April 17, 2025, TSMC reported EPS of $2.12 versus consensus estimate of $2.03 while it beat the consensus revenue estimate by 0.87%. For the current fiscal year, TSMC is expected to post earnings of $9.28 per share on $116.93 in revenues. This represents a 31.82% change in EPS on a 29.8% change in revenues. For the next fiscal year, the company is expected to earn $10.74 per share on $137.1 in revenues. This represents a year-over-year change of 15.82% and 17.25%, respectively. TSMC may be at a 52-week high right now, but what might the future hold for the stock? A key aspect of this question is taking a look at valuation metrics in order to determine if the company has run ahead of itself. On this front, we can look at the Zacks Style Scores, as they provide investors with an additional way to sort through stocks (beyond looking at the Zacks Rank of a security). The individual style scores for Value, Growth, Momentum and the combined VGM Score run from A through F. The idea behind the style scores is to help investors pick the most appropriate Zacks Rank stocks based on their individual investment style. TSMC has a Value Score of D. The stock's Growth and Momentum Scores are A and C, respectively, giving the company a VGM Score of B. In terms of its value breakdown, the stock currently trades at 25.2X current fiscal year EPS estimates, which is not in-line with the peer industry average of 25.2X. On a trailing cash flow basis, the stock currently trades at 21.4X versus its peer group's average of 21.4X. Additionally, the stock has a PEG ratio of 1.21. This isn't enough to put the company in the top echelon of all stocks we cover from a value perspective. We also need to look at the Zacks Rank for the stock, as this is even more important than the company's VGM Score. Fortunately, TSMC currently has a Zacks Rank of #2 (Buy) thanks to rising earnings estimates. Since we recommend that investors select stocks carrying Zacks Rank of 1 (Strong Buy) or 2 (Buy) and Style Scores of A or B, it looks as if TSMC passes the test. Thus, it seems as though TSMC shares could have potential in the weeks and months to come. Want the latest recommendations from Zacks Investment Research?
