Neither is necessarily better. They have their uses. You would not want to use a wet cell battery in a phone, or camera. These type items are stored upside down and the battery fluid could leak out. In a vehicle they work well but not on most other items.

Can a dry cell battery be recharged?
Some wet cells can be recharged (e.g. lead acid cell) some wet cells can't be recharged (e.g. gravity cell). Some dry cells can be recharged (e.g. NiMH cell) some wet cells can't be recharged (e.g. carbon zinc cell). It depends on the cell chemistry not the wet/dry construction. Also any wet cell can be made into a dry cell by absorbing the wet electrolyte into something and making a damp paste electrolyte.
