You can also store your Bitcoins in different wallets, thereby, if one of them get hacked you don't lose all your money.

Hardware wallet are invonvenient because you need to connect to the internet to use it, mobile phone is simple where you can turn the internet on and off whenever you want without connecting anything.

A hardware wallet you simply plug into any internet connected laptop or PC, nothing inconvenient about that. It's just an USB device, not rocket science
