Full sun or partial sun outdoor TV for a patio?? Not quite sure what I need and what is the difference?

We’re redoing our patio and I need some advice on the out the outdoor TV situation. Like if I need to spring for a full sun or partial sun option.

I’ve got two spots in the yard. One makes the most sense layout-wise because it’s wide open and is where everyone naturally hangs out. Problem is it gets blasted with sun for a good chunk of the day… so the only other option is under our pergola which is more shaded and safer for a TV, but it feels kinda tucked away. I know most people say to just get a regular cheapo TV and run it until it dies but there is basically no cover from rain or direct sunlight, even under the pergola so it’d get obliterated immediately. Plus the brightness is an issue.

Seems that “outdoor TV” can mean very different things depending on sun exposure, and I really don’t want to spend good money just to end up with a washed out screen or something that dies after two summers.
