Self Portrait vs the Selfie

What is a selfie?
A picture taken with the front camera of a device featuring the same person who is also taking the photo.
What is a self portrait?
Self portraits are meant to symbolize something about a person and is a type of art.
Is there a difference? If so, what?
A self portrait is meant to illustrate details or important qualities of a person within the picture while a selfie can be taken casually just to have a picture of yourself or with your friends. 
What style do you prefer?
I prefer self portraits because they are more meaningful than a quick selfie.
Is one more valuable than the other? Why?
No picture is more valuable than another. It is all relative to perspective. someone may think that he selfie is more valuable then the self portrait while others may disagree. Maybe a selfie you have represents a specific time that was really important to you.
