UX, harder to optimize to a small screen. Nowadays phones are huge compared to 10 years ago and native apps got a very early advantage.
Connectivity, 2.5G and 3G were slow, bandwidth is capped, no internet at all somewhere.
And yes, what can you do on iOS if Apple forces their browser on all their customers?
But (Android) I still spend most of my time in a browser. Notable exceptions: WhatsApp, Telegram, K9, Maps, OSMAnd, Camera, Gallery, YouTube / NewPipe. Maybe 1 hour vs all the rest.
