The most important difference is the oppositional ability of human thumb. This is the prime reason why we are able to perfectly grip things in our hands without slipping and have better control over our hands.

A simple demonstration of this ability is to count on our fingers which is not possible for monkeys to do.

Hence, a broken thumb leaves us with extensive disability than any other primate.
