Your device supports the sending of text messages beyond the character limit for a single
message. Longer messages will be sent as a series of two or more messages. Your service
provider may charge accordingly. Characters that use accents or other marks, and characters
from some language options like Chinese, take up more space limiting the number of
characters that can be sent in a single message.
On top of the display you can see the message length indicator counting the number of
characters available. For example, 10/2 means that you can still add 10 characters for the
text to be sent as two messages.
