IDEs visualise more data about the project you're working on then just text editors. It might point out common errors/mistakes you've been doing on your code before executing it.

Text editors don't have these features.

You're also forgetting automated refactors, got integration, maven integration and a whole lotta stuff that IDEs facilitate
