LINKED MESSAGES

You can send messages that exceed 160 characters, which will be sent as a series of
two or more messages, also known as a linked message. In the navigation bar, you
can see the message length indicator counting backwards from 160. For example, 10
(2) means that you can still add 10 characters for the text to be sent as two messages.

Using special (Unicode) characters take up more space. If there are special characters
in your message, the indicator may not show the message length correctly. Before
the message is sent, the phone will tell you if the message exceeds the maximum
length allowed for one message. Cancel sending by pressing Cancel or save the
message in the inbox.
