So they are heavier than the 9 speed XO's.
Those are around 178gram without cables.
2 grams to be saved by using nylon bolts in stead of the standard steel bolts.

Edit:Found pricing on lightbikes.de
XO: 206€
XX: 270€

so with both grip shift unit weighting the same, will a sram XX user be able to use the new sram x.0 grip shifter with a full sram XX drivetrain?

It should work fine. All Sram 10 speed stuff works together.
