Packaging
The Zalman Z9 Plus comes in a pretty standard brown package along with some black and blue coloring. On the front of the case you’ll find a picture of the case along with some product information. On the sides you’ll also find the same information in multiple languages.
The case is protected by two pieces of hard foam and a rather thick plastic bag.
