The Wildwood blurb on the website makes a point of saying they have an incredibly keen sense of sight, which factors greatly into their unparalleled expertise as archers. Likewise for Duskwights and their hearing: "They have developed an acute sense of hearing, capable of detecting the faintest of sounds."Â
For Miqo'te eyesight, I'd think it would depend on subrace, with Keepers seeing far better at night (hence the rounded pupils) and Seekers during the day (slitted). Both seem to naturally be quite agile and dextrous, though, just going by their starting attributes.
As far as senses go, smell is probably a primary one for miqo'te. Elezen are more noted for their hearing, according to lore as you say. Keepers have good night vision for sure.
I don't really see any reason they would have a superior sense of taste. Cats IRL actually have pretty crappy taste and can't taste sweet things at all, so if one roleplays their miqo'te like a cat, say goodbye to enjoying cupcakes or cookies. I don't think I'd go that far with miqo'te, though, as I'm not a fan of treating them just like anthropomorphized cats. It's the same reason I don't roleplay any sort of "catnip" effect unique to them.

I just go with Keeper pupils are larger overall, even when fully constricted.
