Is the direct sunlight more harmful for macbooks or heat coming from the sunlight?

It so happens that my macbook pro is used on the table next to the window where direct sunlight comes, i've been trying to find out if the sunlight harms the laptop or is it the heat coming from it so that i can take action accordingly.


MacBook Pro 13″, macOS 12.2

Sunlight Damaging a Device:

Both are damaging, and indoors, sunlight would be more of a beam of light, if coming through a window. So, keep it out of sunlight, out of the corner of your room, and use a laptop cooer (which I do).
