.net SaveChanges vs update difference

using (var context = new UserContext())
{
    // Query for the entity.
    var user = context.Users.Single(e => e.Name == "Arthur");

    // Entity is now tracked. Make a change to it.
    user.Email = "arth@example.com";

    // EF will detect the change and update only the column that has changed.
    context.SaveChanges();
}
