如今，設計師和廠商都絞盡腦汁，為產品延展出很多不必要的功能。于是，在生活中，豆漿機不僅能熬豆漿，還可以煲粥、榨汁、攪肉餡；一支筆不止能寫字，還能充當涂改液、發出激光當激光筆等情況隨處可見。事實上，很多時候，我們根本用不著這些五花八門、亂七八糟的功能，只要返璞歸真的原始功能。

Defeature is a verb referring to return a product to its original or most basic purpose by removing features that do not contribute or apply to that purpose.

Defeature是個動詞，指通過去除某產品多余的功能使其恢復最原始或最基礎的用途。

The "dumbphone" is a perfect example. British designer Jasper Morrison recently launched the telephone in collaboration with Swiss tech company Punkt. The defeatured mobile handset only makes calls and accepts voice mail.

“愚笨型手機”就是個極好的例子。英國設計師賈思帕·莫里森最近與瑞士科技公司Punkt合作，推出了一款手機。這種“返璞歸真”的手機只能用來打電話和接收語音郵件。

For Example:

This may seem obvious today but at the time all the mp3 player manufactures were competing on how to get more features into the player, which was a losing proposition. In the case of the Nike+, they've taken the idea of defeaturing the device even further. The device itself has no display and no interactions. You simply put it in your shoe.

如今，雖然這點貌似顯而易見，但在那個所有mp3播放器制造商都在較量如何為播放器增加更多功能的時代，卻是個失敗的提案。在Nike+的案例中，他們已經采納進一步去除該產品多余功能，恢復其基礎用途的想法。該產品本身既無播放也無互動功能，只需將它放進你的鞋里。
