Talk:Sanyo PHC-25

Incorrect/misleading claim

edit

This version of the article asserts that

It is the successor of the Sanyo PHC-10 and Sanyo PHC-20.

I remember coming across magazine reviews that covered all three at the same time, stating that they were different members of the same family (e.g. the PHC-10 was intended as a very simple and cheap entry-level learning machine, the PHC-25 was a higher-specced and more expensive machine). Note that this set of magazine scans displays them together as part of a review of the trio of machines at the same time.

Further, the referenced link doesn't actually *say* that the PHC-25 was the successor; it says that it was the *third member* of the family. I was going to tag this dubious, but I'll change the text instead.

One other point; does anyone know if all the machines in the series were actually released? It's happened on several occasions that machines have been reviewed but never subsequently released, and the lack of imagery of the PHC-10 on the web suggests this; possibly with the PHC-20 too.

64x48 lores?

edit

Just wanting to point out that this may need checking and verification. As far as I am aware, the 6847 does not, and never has, supported the resolution of 64x48. It is 32x16 (8 colour) and 64x32 (8 colour). But this will require someone verifying and checking.... 2406:2D40:415D:BE10:3D01:F430:1340:4915 (talk) 09:04, 19 August 2024 (UTC)Reply

64x48 is Semigraphics 6 (SG6) on the 6847. Check the reference on the 6847 article: https://people.ece.cornell.edu/land/courses/ece4760/ideas/mc6847.pdf. On page 19 of the PDF you have the specs of all modes. 4throck (talk) 18:39, 19 August 2024 (UTC)Reply
