Kindly visit following google journal for more updates "searchenginejournal".

Yes correct Google is showing more than 220 characters. still in research once i got it it i will.

As of December 2017, according to Search Engine Land: “the snippet length has grown from 160 characters to almost 230 characters on average”. You can find on Searchenigne land for more info.

Yes google update it in Dec2017 read at searchengineland website

google reads 160 Chr only

it right but it cloud be aroubnd 170 chr

Google reads only 155 character only and if you put more than 155 , Google will truncate after 155 character

according to google,google allows up to 160 words but google does not read more than 155 words.

Google changes its description length policy and it extended up to 300 characters. For detailed information read this blog https://moz.com/blog/googles-longer-snippets

Yes, in Google Search Engine Result page, shows the description of above 160 characters, even it shows three line snippet with around 278 characters. This update is arrived in the month of May, 2016

I have noticed sometime in Google search results that some Google is showing more characters in descriptions than its limits....

I don't thinks so there is any update from Google. When google find the unique and most relevant text, it try to show the more character/words in SERP.

Google is showing more than 220 characters. How?

yes I know, but right now no update

I think that what we need in google search is a very good description. For me is more important the quality, veracity that the amount of characters.
