Android/Cyborg Cell

Should Cell even be considered one of these? Nothing about him is mechanical, as far as I know, so why do people continue to call him an android or cyborg?

I'm assuming, since it says so in both mine and viz, that it's directly translated. Cyborg, or what we could call android, is what he calls himself.

Haha, It's one of his most famous quotes: "My name is Cell, I am an android."

Yes, but that's mostly recognized in the anime. Going purely by manga, he doesn't really say "android", he says "cyborg" or "artificial human".

Yes, but what I'm saying is should he even be considered as one? Cyborgs or Androids are mechanical no? Cell was never that as far as I know, so how can he be an android?

I don't question the manga, personally.

What would you consider him?

They're not mechanical, but they are Bio mechanical

Artificial Human lol or at least Artificial Being. I don't question it either but if a cyborg is suppose to be a "human-machine", I just don't see Cell as that.

Android: A robot made to resemble a humanoid.
Cyborg: Part organic, part mechanical.

Cell is neither an android or cyborg.
He is an artificial organic life-form.

Viz calls him an "artificial life form," and in the chapter preview from the volume before that he's called a "bio-engineered monstrosity."
