The invention relates to the field of communication and discloses a method for a mobile terminal to process newly received short messages and the mobile terminal. The method provided by the invention comprises the following steps: firstly acquiring SCTSs (service center time stamps) of the short messages when the newly received short messages are received by the mobile terminal, and judging whether system time is abnormal or not according to comparative results of acquired difference values between the SCTSs and the current system time of the terminal and a preset time difference threshold value. Under the condition that the system time is abnormal, the short messages are saved by adopting the SCTSs as time of receipt, so that the sorting time of the short messages cannot be greatly differed from current normal time, and a user can conveniently find the short messages in time in a short message list. Further, after the condition that the system time is corrected is detected by the mobile terminal, the time of
