Any opinion on Catalyst 9200 vs 3650?

We're looking at making a large purchase of new switches. Previously our standard was 3650, but it looks like the 9200 (non-L) might be a bit cheaper. We'd be looking at 48 port PoE with the 4x10G uplink module, as well as non-PoE 48 porters without an uplink module to create a stack with. We're only going to be using these in Layer 2 mode, with all the VLANs on the distribution layer (Cat6.8K)

Anyone have any thoughts on the 9200s, and if they would purchase them in place of the 3650? We are not really looking at SDA right now and would just do a 3 yr license that we'd likely never use. The 9300s are likely out of our budget.
