Following the login (my understanding) of Canon replacement of 500D should be 800/850D. xxxxD is lower class of cameras. About 200D - this is different serie (by own), small size, with most of the options of xxxD serie.

To the define "the best" replacement is very long discussion, also based on personal opinion :)
