does a message to another iPhone thats "sent as text message" still get delivered?

Within a 20 minute period I sent a message via text to another iPhone user. First few sent blue in iMessage. But the last one sent green/sent as text message. Did this message still get delivered to the other iPhone user? I am on the most recent iOS, iPhone 6s. The other iPhone is also a 6s but not sure what iOS it's currently on

It should have been delivered. Having been sent as a green message means that either you or the recipient did not have an internet connection either wifi or cellular through which it could deliver the message in blue as an iMessage.

.

Green Messages are sent as SMS, the normal way to send messages, but it should still be delivered.
