In terms of racial traits,

Humans in most media forms are shown to be Jack of All Trades, where being versatile is a strength instead of specialization.

The Faunus seem to be specialized in sensory abilities, but that can be a boon or a bane, and they are shown to also be Jack of All Trades. Their enhanced senses ends with a zero sum game.

Then we have to account Aura, which all things with a soul have, and the fact that it can enhance the user's abilities.

So in the end, they're pretty much equal.
