Add a space or \relax after the number to prevent TeX from reading the next character
in the input which can result in the wrong output (see output for \one).
\defineexpandable\one {\char"41}
\defineexpandable\two {\char"41 }
\defineexpandable\three{\char"41\relax}
\defineexpandable\four {\utfchar{"41}}
\setupbodyfont[cambria]
\starttext
1: \one 3\par
2: \two 3\par
3: \three 3\par
4: \four 3
\stoptext
