Same here. When the application has been designed from the ground-up with the target platform in mind, the user experience is almost always better than the equivalent in-browser, at least for me.
Apart from performance-intensive apps/services like Netflix or Twitch, even things like Linkedin I find more engaging on a tablet/phone.
The app feels more responsive, the design does not have the same constraints as when designing for a browser.
But I really don't see the need of seeing it as a dichotomy, as a "there will be only one" thing.
The convenience/ubiquity/versatility of a browser is hard to match.
Just like the browser didn't kill desktop applications, native apps won't kill the browser.
