Both formats, briefly

HEIC

HEICIN

HEIC is what an iPhone saves when the camera app is left on its default setting. It uses HEVC compression, so a photo takes noticeably less space than the JPG version, and one file can hold a burst, the frames of a Live Photo, depth data and non-destructive edits. Apple devices read it without help. Plenty of Windows software, older phones and upload forms still do not, which is why HEIC is the format people most often need converted before they can share a picture.

PCX

PCXOUT

PCX is a DOS era format, originally the native file of PC Paintbrush, and for years it was how images moved between early PC programs. It uses run length encoding, supports palettes up to 24 bit color, and is simple enough that a decoder fits in a page of code. Nothing new is written in PCX today. You run into it in old archives, scanner utilities and retro computing projects.
