Leeuwenhoek discovered blood cells and recognized them as living units of life.
Hooke examined a thin slice of dead cork and observed box-like cubicles and called them 'cells'.
Anton van Leeuwenhoek verified Robert Hooke's discovery of cells by observing them through a microscope he had developed. Leeuwenhoek's meticulous observations of various biological samples provided further evidence to support Hooke's initial findings on the existence of cells.
Robert Hooke named cells in 1665 when observing a piece of cork under a microscope. Schwann and Schleiden later formulated the cell theory in 1839, while Leeuwenhoek was a pioneer in the field of microscopy.

Born in Delft in The Netherlands in 1632 and died in 1723.
Hooke had discovered plant cells -- more precisely, what Hooke saw were the cell walls in cork tissue. In fact, it was Hooke who coined the term "cells": the boxlike cells of cork reminded him of the cells of a monastery. Hooke also reported seeing similar structures in wood and in other plants. In 1678, after Leeuwenhoek had written to the Royal Society with a report of discovering "little animals" -- bacteria and protozoa -- Hooke was asked by the Society to confirm Leeuwenhoek's findings. He successfully did so, thus paving the way for the wide acceptance of Leeuwenhoek's discoveries. Hooke noted that Leeuwenhoek's simple microscopes gave clearer images than his compound microscope, but found simple microscopes difficult to use: he called them "offensive to my eye" and complained that they "much strained and weakened the sight."
Robert Hooke is credited with discovering cells and formulating the cell theory. Anton van Leeuwenhoek is known for improving the microscope and discovering microorganisms such as bacteria and protozoa.
Robert Hooke discovered the cell in 1625 when he used a rudimentary microscope to magnify cork cells. They reminded him of monk's cells in a monastery so he named the objects he found "cells." He wasn't even looking for it. He found it by causality.
A simple version of a compound microscope was used to discover cells. Robert Hooke first described cells in 1665, using a compound microscope. Soon after, Anton van Leeuwenhoek also studied cells using a microscope with more advanced lenses.

I don't exactly know but I think Leeuwenhoek invented the microscope.

Robert Hooke discovered cells under a microscope in 1665. He took a sliver of cork and called the small encasements he saw, cells. They were dead cells, though. The first person to see living cells, was a man named Anton van Leeuwenhoek. He took pond water and observed that under a microscope.

pond water! Robert Hooke looked at a cork under a microscope.

Anton van Leeuwenhoek did not call anything he saw in his microscope cells, Robert Hooke did when he saw some plant material in his microscope for the first time. He said they reminded him of monk's living quarters.
