Constitution and Specifications

I recently came across the heading 「構成および仕様」, which was translated as "Constitution and Specifications." Unfortunately, the text following this heading failed to list the so-called "constitution" of the product, nor did it provide any "specifications." The original title should have been Primary Feature (大特徴) or something like that since the text contained only the primary feature of the product.

Here are some points to remember:

Original Text:

• 構成および仕様

Definitions:

• 構成【こうせい】configuration
• および and; as well as
• 仕様【しよう】technical specifications

Original Translation:

• Constitution and specifications

Proposed Translations:

• Specifications
• Configuration and Specifications
• Performance [depending on context]
