No, these strings are not for me! A lot of people really like them, but I don't!. First of all, the Nanoweb coating makes them feel very slippery under my (left-hand) fingertips. I thought I could maybe get used to this, but after three weeks I've given up. I have several guitars, and the others are fitted with standard, uncoated strings, so I could easily compare them.
Also, they sound too bright and 'metallic' for my taste, but I suppose this is to be expected from 80/20 strings.
Anyway, this is just my opinion.

Series Info
Elixir® Strings are available in two different 'flavors'. Both feature the same patented protection and deliver the same extended life, but differ in tone and feel.
What's the difference between NANOWEB® and POLYWEB® coatings?
The difference between our coating 'flavors' is found in the tone and feel of the strings. NANOWEB® coated strings sound and feel like uncoated strings - they are bright and lively, and the coating is so micro thin that you can barely tell it's there.
POLYWEB® coated strings have a balanced tone and smooth response - they sound like strings that have been 'played in'. In addition, POLYWEB® coated strings feel comfortably smooth and help reduce finger squeak.
Elixir® Strings with ultra thin NANOWEB® coating...
-Have the bright tone and punch of non-coated strings
-Feel like traditional strings

Too slippery!
Quiet string noise but short life for tonality
If their main feature is “long lasting” then I would argue that they lose their tonality and intonation quicker than some other choices. The real value is that these strings do reduce guitar string “squeak” and that has been useful for recording subtle finger picking.
Perfect
These strings are very durable and the sound is constant. They will not fade due to the oxidation.
Best Strings Ever
On my Taylor this strings sounds great. Until now, they are the best strings that I've tried. Really reccomended.
