When Jake first drives, he is wearing a black "dog tag" with a blue spot. When he walks over toward the viewing window with the portable screen at approximately 15 mins 30 seconds, the "dog tag" is orange with a spot of black.

Continuity: In the scene where Neytiri and Jake are standing under the Tree of Voices and Neytiri says to Jake, "This is a place for prayers to be heard", Neytiri's queue is at her back. In the next shot it is hanging over her right shoulder.

Continuity: In the scene where Grace is talking about the Tree of Souls in the mobile lab, Trudy stands behind Jake with her right hand on her hip and left hand hanging down. After grace says "Outsiders are strictly forbidden," we are shown a close-up shot of Jake and hear Grace continue with "You lucky swine." In the background, we see that Trudy has suddenly turned 90 degrees clockwise and is apparently supporting herself with her left arm on what seems to be the same table Norm is sitting on.

Continuity: When Jake is recording his first video log entry, he moves the recording camera around a little to get a better view of his face, and is looking directly at a screen to his right to see if he's centered his face correctly. In the very next shot, he is staring straight forward at the camera.

Deliberate "mistake": When Selfridge says "Pull the plug" after Hometree is destroyed, two soldiers, one male and one female, go to shut off Jake and Grace's avatar links. The female soldier goes straight to Grace's link and terminates it, but the male soldier gets delayed (punched by Norm) before he can terminate Jake's link. This is deliberately shown out of sequence - we see Jake's link terminated before Grace's. The result is that we see Grace's avatar fall unconscious when Jake's link is terminated, and Jake's avatar fall unconscious when Grace's link is terminated.
