Anachronisms 

The Hollywood sign is in pristine condition during the montage showing Elton's arrival to Los Angeles, California, the sign was not refurbished until 1978.
When Elton slams down the phone on his mum, the dial tone is a recent British Telecom one, not the old 33Hz 'purr' that existed in the 1970s.
The phone next to the bed at Mama Cass' house is British - a GPO 722, which would not work in the US as among other things, it has the wrong kind of plug.
Elton and Bernie are driven to their gig at the Troubadour - which occurred on 25 August 1970 - in a 1977-1979 Lincoln Continental (identifiable by the tall chrome front grille). As they arrive at the Troubadour, they are passed in the other direction by a dark-colored late-1980's Chevrolet Caprice (identifiable by its flat, flush taillights).
After Elton has had a row with his mother in the restaurant and goes into the restroom, the washbasin taps are of a modern mixer design, not available in the early 1980s.
When Elton and Bernie first go to the US in the early seventies, there is an aerial shot of the Hollywood sign. The radio mast adjacent to the sign has modern telecommunications transmitters/receivers on it that were not developed in the 1970s.
The logo on the fall board of the Yamaha piano Elton plays at the Royal Academy is from 1987. Yamaha didn't label the fall boards of their pianos with just the word "Yamaha" until 1967.
In one instance Elton goes from a Troubadour in review in 1970 to a duet with Kiki Dee that didn't happen until 1976.

In Dick James's office in the late 1960s, Elton sings the first bar of 'Sad Songs (say so much)' only to be met with James's remark "Too depressing". This song was not actually written by Bernie Taupin until 1983 (and released in 1984). At the same meeting he also sings a portion of 'I Guess That's Why They Call It The Blues' (written in 1982 by Taupin and released in 1983). Whilst these are technically anachronisms, the filmmakers have also said this film is not a factually correct biography and that they took some liberties for the sake of the story.
