These are different objects, with different usages, with different options to work with.

  • Ref images, can be aligned to the view port for example.

They have different visibility in different modes. Images as planes is older, useful to add a picture in a frame on a wall, in a rendered view for example. The reference image is not visible in a render, but is visible in the working view, which images as planes are not.

Just experiment and play, use the things and get used to them.
