Date Time creates a field of type GlideDateTime. While Calendar GlideDateTime create a field of CalendarDateTime.

CalendarDateTime was introduced in New York release while GlideDateTime existed in earlier versions.

CalendarDateTime is only supported in Scoped applications while GlideDateTime supports both Scoped and Global applications.
