If you scroll down to the reviews and look at the images, there are CrystalDiskMark benchmarks for both cards.

EVO Select
seq: 92.52 MB/s read, 25.26 MB/s write
4k: 2.813 MB/s read, 1.519 MB/s write

EVO Plus
seq: 86.61 MB/s read, 71.50 MB/s write
4k: 9.598 MB/s read, 3.753 MB/s write

Assuming those scores are accurate, the Plus is substantially better. Not only is the sequential write speed a lot faster (important for recording video, and copying large files like movies from a computer to the card), but the 4k speeds are much better (important for lots of system bookkeeping Android does on the card).

The only caveat I can think of is that these were tests run on different capacity cards (32GB and 64GB respectively).
