Chip Antenna or Wired Antenna

I’m about to make an Xbee purchase but I had a question before i do so. I noticed that there is a chip based antenna and a wire based antenna. I was curious if there is a huge difference between these two and if there is any reason to go with one or the other?

I will be primarily using these indoors with different obstacles between the two units.

You’ll get more range with the wire antenna and it will be less directional.
