Normally there’s a product box that fits the white plastic liner better. See how there’s a sizable gap between the plastic liner and the brown cardboard box?

It looks like whoever shipped that to you removed the product box ( which is made of white tagboard and colorfully printed and fits inside the brown cardboard shipping container) and put the white liner with the radio in it and the plastic wrap directly into the corrugated cardboard shipping box. That may have been done to provide room around the inside of the shipping box for your longer antenna. 

I’m wrong. My TYT and Wouxun radios arrived in white product boxes. One of my Baofeng (GT5R) arrived in the exact same kind of brown cardboard box as @WRTC928 showed in his photo. No product box between the cardboard box and the plastic liner. 
My original Baofeng UV5R arrived in a larger white box. It was the only Baofeng that I received with a long antenna.
