Continuity mistake: When Luke is climbing to the X-Wing, R2D2 is being brought over right next to where a guy is. He touches the robot and brings it close to him. Shot changes and the robot is away and it's being moved towards the man again. (01:43:46)

Continuity mistake: Darth Vader fires at Luke's X-wing and blows R2D2's top off. Half a second later it shows no damage at all. It's not even scorched. When Luke lands, R2D2's head is destroyed and it's scorched all over. (01:56:15)

Continuity mistake: When Obi Wan introduces the lightsaber, he says, "This is the weapon of the Jedi knight." C3PO is disconnected with his head down and in a lighted archway, with some blankets or something by his left side. A frame later, in a close-up, C3PO's head is up, the archway is 'in shadows and the blankets gone.
