    inputField - copy the field from any object and display on a VF page | like copy paste work.
    inputText - it will help to create a field from scratch | new creation

    <apex:inputText/> : It always renders a normal text field. It can be bound to an SObject field or a regular variable of any data type that can be coerced into text, including numbers. It can be bound to an SObject field or a regular variable of any data type that can be coerced into text, including numbers.
    <apex:inputField/>: It can't be used on non-SObject variables and automatically renders the correct control based on the field's definition. If the user cannot edit that field because of FLS, then the inputfield instead renders as a read-only outputField.
