Samsung Mobile function guide

With your mobile phone, you can create and send text, multimedia, or email messages, and view or manage messages you have sent or received. Costs will vary for different types of messages. Refer to the contract with your service provider for details about messaging costs, limits, and other details.

For text messages, you can add simple images or emoticons, as well as text. If you add a subject or media files or enter text of more than a specified number of characters, your message will be automatically converted to a multimedia message. The maximum number of characters allowed for a text message and the maximum size of files allowed for a multimedia message may vary depending on your service provider.

Create and send a text message

Text messages allow for easy communication with your contacts. Text messages are limited to a specified number of characters (refer to your user manual). If you exceed the limit or add attachments to a text message, it will automatically convert to a multimedia message, which may result in additional charges from your service provider.
