The difference comes from how they are stored in the RAM.
Primitive data types are stored on the Stack, Reference d.t. - on the Heap.
Java example:
Stack Heap
char Objects
byte Strings
short Arrays
int Lists
long Maps
float
double

Aman sharma,
Simply said, because a String is like an Array of chars.
Check the link about the stack and heap above. It explains the difference between the Stack and Heap, so you'll understand it better.
