I see some phones advertised for sale as "Latin Variant/US Comptible".
What does this really mean?

That somebody mis-spelled 'compatible'.

'Latin' is obviously Latin America. I notice one reviewer on
Amazon disagreed: "No está liberado para Estados
Unidos"

If croy had provided a link*, readers might see the actual quote was
"Latin Variant / US Compatible LTE".

* For example, https://www.amazon.com/A55-Dual-SIM-Unlocked-Smartphone-Compatible/dp/B0CYHL1J6M


The "US Compatible LTE" means they claim the phone is compatible with US
LTE frequency bands (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LTE_frequency_bands).

The "Latin Variant" may mean what Dave Royal says, and the phone variant
is for another country (where frequency bands could be different).
