Mobile text messages exceeding 70 words are charged as multiple messages. Will the other party receive one message or multiple messages?

If the message exceeds 70 Chinese characters, the second text message will be charged. Whether the message is received by the other party depends on the mobile phone.

In the past, old receivers did not support long text messages, and sending or receiving them were separated. Nowadays, if you send more than 70 Chinese characters on a mobile phone, you can receive them in one message without being separated.

160 English characters need to be represented by 7-bit ASCII encoding, which requires 7×160 bits. However, if converted to 8-bit UCS-2 encoding, 7×160÷8 bits are needed. At the same time, since Chinese characters need to occupy 2 characters, the total number of Chinese characters is 7×160÷8÷2, which is exactly equal to 70.

Extended information

SMS messages exceeding 70 characters are long messages. Mobile phone users will see only one message. The actual gateway will charge multiple messages and charge once for every 67 characters. .

The above is the difference between normal SMS and long SMS billing. When users actually use the SMS bulk sending platform, long SMS can carry a larger amount of information. At the same time, mobile phone users have a better reading experience after receiving the SMS. .

But from the perspective of reading habits, text messages are more suitable for concise and to the point, so when editing text messages, keep them as short as possible. Chinese writing is broad and profound, and a few words can actually express very profound meanings. This is another cultural background reason why Weibo and light blogs are so popular in China.
