Native email uses mail() function and works great if it is properly configured. if not you can use any SMTP server you have access to.

Btw, SMTP is more efficient because only one connection is opened when sending multiple emails. Native email opens a connection for every email it sends.

Better support than via PHP (my opinion), less system resources and no limits for sending for example...

Thus uses less resources.
