I'm working on an old project written and then patched by several people over the years. At some places they have used SelectedValue property and other places they used SelectedItem.Value.

Question: Is SelectedValue just a syntactic sugar for SelectedItem.Value or SelectedValue works differently under the hood? Which one performs better?

Edit: SelectedItem.Text was replaced with SelectedItem.Value
