My understanding here is that the OP is getting the UCS-2 encoded
string in from a modem, almost certainly on a serial line.  The UCS-2
encoded data is itself a binary sequence of 16-bit code units, and the
modem firmware is sending those as four hex digits.
 

Exactly. This is the reply to AT+CMGR command that is standardized in
3GPP TS 27.005.

Anything that is specifying the use of UCS-2 encoding automatically dates
itself to about the early-to-mid 1990s.
