HTML Form: Select-Option vs Datalist-Option

Question

I was wondering what the differences are between Select-Option and Datalist-Option. Is there any situation in which it would be better to use one or the other? An example

Answer 1

Datalist includes autocomplete and suggestions natively, it can also allow a user to enter a value that is not defined in the suggestions.

Select only gives you pre-defined options the user has to select from
