Madeleine is wearing stilettos in the poisonous garden clip. In the next scene, she's wearing high heels with a wide heel.
After visiting Vesper's grave in the pre-title sequence, Bond's necktie disappears during his fight with Cyclops.
During the car chase near the beginning of the film a black SUV smacks Bond's Aston Martin in the passenger side and spins it around, but in the next scene there is no damage on the side of the car.
Sure there is. Just before they arrive at the train station (00:22:20) the damage can be seen. Remember, this is a hardened vehicle. It takes a lot to damage it.

When Bond and Paloma are walking across the street after he has got changed in her wine cellar they are walking in the road and a taxi passes by them very closely, but in the next scene they are walking through the entrance to the building and are now nowhere near where they were a split second previously.
When Bond and Moneypenny visit Q at home, a cat (cat#1) is seen on the table. At 1:10:01 cat #2 is seen at the door. Q picks up cat #2 and the cat dashes up the stairs. At 1:10:14 cat #1 is still on the table, scoping for a treat. In Spectre, Q mentions he has a mortgage and 2 cats to feed, in protest against helping Bond evade smart-blood surveillance.
M reads the Jack London quote from a page too close to the middle of the book. It is in fact at the start in the book's introduction.
A Royal Navy Type 45 Destroyer is seen launching a barrage of missiles against the villain's lair. However, the Type 45 carries the Sea Viper system which is anti-aircraft and anti-missile only.
In the Norwegian chase scene, Madeleine's car has a fake Norwegian license plate of OQ with six digits. In Norway, they don't use the letter Q and the most digits allowed on a license plate is five.
Bond uses the mini-EMP device in his watch that was given to him by Q, and in each instance it disables proximate/touching electrical devices, but it doesn't affect the radio transceiver in Bond's ear through which he is communicating with his allies. However, Q did imply that the watch did have a limited range. Obviously it would be designed with a range that would not extend to an earpiece.
It's possible that, since Q-Branch produces discrete EMP devices for agents, the boffins also have the smarts to produce EMP-hardened earpieces/'phones/tablets/etc. for complimentary issue to agents also being issued with a personal EMP device.

In the opening sequence Madeline Swann appears as a child, placing the scene in the mid 1990s. However, the machine gun carried by Safin is a Czech Small Arms Sa vz. 58 Compact, which didn't exist before 2007.
She was reliving the under the ice experience in her mind. She got some details wrong. That was her faulty memory.

Though Nomi and Bond leave about the same time to travel from Jamaica to Santiago, via sea-plane and sailing yacht respectively, with the light plane seen flying over the sail boat during the journeys, both are seen arriving in Cuba at the same time, despite the fact that traveling via plane is far quicker than traveling by boat. However, there is no indication that 007 departed at the same time as Bond.
Bond is seen running through the pond in the middle of the poison garden. However, earlier workers can be seen in protective suits working in the pond indicating that it contains poison similar to the acid seen in the inside pond. Actually, there is no indication of the pond itself being toxic. As both Bond and Safin share an entire scene in the pond, the water in it is obviously quite different than the waters beneath it.
It might be assumed that James Bond or any of the protagonists could have left the island on the scissor-wing plane they arrived in. However, that plane was technically a glider that only flew "by gravity". On the other hand, it was able to propel itself through water.
When James Bond and Nomi emerge from underwater with the sub, the front glass is dry without a drop of water. Of course, the glass could have been treated with a sheeting agent that would have shed all the water.
With Bond retired from active service, it is highly unlikely that he would have been allowed to keep the Aston Martin DB5, especially as it was still fully armed with bullets and bombs. Furthermore, the car was not actually his to keep but was developed for his use on active service, which of course had ceased.
Around the 00:49:00 mark, all guns fired, from Bond's SIG-Sauer, Beretta ARX, Safin's henchmen's AKS-74Us and Logan Ash's Billy Magnussen, SIG SG 552 all sound exactly the same.
After Safin's men have broken into the laboratory, no response by any kind of security forces is seen. Given the fact that the laboratory is operated by or is working for MI6 and the kind of viruses it holds, that seems extremely unlikely.
James Bond is seen driving on the left side of the road in Italy - a country with right-hand driving.

(~01:04:30) Bond tells Q to find "Lyutsifer Safin" without telling him how it's spelled.
Bond says "Royal Naval" when he should've said "Royal Navy".
