The major difference between BIS and BlackBerry Complete is that complete comes with limitations. Although most of these limitations will not be missed by an average BlackBerry user. BlackBerry Complete features limited browsing unlike BIS, which usually comes with unlimited internet browsing.
In addition, BlackBerry Complete supports only one third party internet email like GMail or Yahoo. So, if you want to receive emails from more than one source on your phone, go for BIS. However, you can also send and receive email using the built-in BlackBerry Mail.
