Correct it'll have "Yaw technology with electronic trim" but size and weight stay the same.

Is the crankset/chainrings gonna be any lighter or is it just the RD, levers and chain?

Crankset looks similar. Graphics update on the arms, a little less silver on the chainrings, but overall similar look. 29g lighter, all from the crank arms.

If this will be the case and since i never had issues with drop chains with FD don’t see any reason to upgrade

All signs say no.

The GXP version for last-gen AXS was created solely for the now entirely abandoned BB90 bottom bracket shell. There are no Apex, Rival and Force D2 GXP cranks.

Nice. Hopefully the price stays mostly unchanged! That would easily make it the best crankset $/g upgrade for Shimano groups.

$700 for the crankset. $1200 for the integrated PM crankset.

+1

I just want the new shifters, 10-36 cassette and RD bcos of the new thumb buttons and bent RD. Also, the Red 10-36 should be a real upgrade over my black Force cassette. I am totally happy with the current chain, brakes, FD and PM crankset.

Don't suppose you've seen a 160mm crank option, have you?
