Hey Guys, My name is Nipun (Some of you may know me as Nipu_1998 from the community). I am so excited and honored to be a part of the OnePlus LAB Programme. I am a medical student from India who is also interested in gadgets and tech. Before jumping into the review, I would like to thank
@Crystal Z. @Eric X. @dsmonteiro and all other OnePlus staff and mods for selecting me and making my dream of becoming an OnePlus LAB reviewer come true.
Throughout this review, I would be mentioning the OnePlus 9 pro Morning Mist (Indian Unit) with 12 GB of RAM and 256 GB of Storage

Summary
UNBOXING
OnePlus products are well known for their premium Unboxing Experiences. The OnePlus 9 pro is not an exception either.

The experience starts with the minimalist OnePlus Red box.
The box is constructed with soft-touch packaging materials and feels premium from the very first touch. The top part of the box houses the 'OnePlus 9 pro 5G' and the 'Hasselblad' branding printed in golden-red letters. The OnePlus and Hasselblad logos can be seen on either side of the packaging. The bottom of the box contains all the safety labels and device information printed on it.
Opening the lid, you will be greeted by the gorgeous
OnePlus 9 pro.
In my case, it is the morning mist variant, wrapped in the safety wrapper.

OnePlus have done a commendable job in making the unboxing experience a premium one. The use of high-quality packaging material and the attention to details such as the subtle brandings and the resistance offered by the box while lifting the lid are small things that make a huge difference in the end-user experience.
The device comes with a
pre-applied screen protector which can protect the device from minor accidental scratches. But, the quality of the screen protector is just okayish and it can be easily scratched and is a fingerprint magnet. So I would highly recommend replacing it with a good quality aftermarket tempered glass ( OnePlus has not yet released an official tempered glass for the OnePlus 9 pro. So it would be a tedious job to find a perfectly fitting one for the curved screen)
The grey-colored
opaque TPU case seems to be a well-thought inclusion. The case owing to its opaque nature is expected to solve the yellowing problem faced by clear TPU cases.
The case has a prominent NEVER SETTLE branding which gives it a character and also helps to increase the grip. The case provides ample protection and an added grip to the slippery device.

While unboxing, the code PID-50Q printed in the packaging caught my attention.

Upon googling, I found that it was the code name for the Partnership of OnePlus with Hasselblad. The Hasselblad effect is so evident all over the packaging with Hasselblad logos and brandings of the collaboration. This increases my excitement to test the cameras of the OnePlus 9 series co-developed with Hasselblad.
