But for coding, there are many difference between CALayer and UIView like object methods and properties etc. So which is the better choice?

    Every UIView is layer-backed, so you can get a layer reference for any view. If you need it to have UIResponder characteristics (e.g., respond to events), you should probably use a UIView.
