The tablet Ryan Gosling uses early in the movie is actually a plate holder from a 1920s-era camera.

Joi saying that she is getting cabin fever is a subtle attempt by her company to market the device that makes her portable.

K's jacket has salt stains, as would appear upon drying after being in the ocean in the previous scene

Blade 2 (2002) Scud constantly fiddles with his lips. Most think it's cause of his smoking, but it's because he's still in pain from his Glyph Tattoo.

After "retiring" a rogue replicant Sapper Morton at the protein farm, K sees the inscription "??????" (celin?) on the building. It's Russian and means "virgin land, virgin soil".

K is shown with the roof lights placed on top of him like Angel wings in his most heroic moment. This specifically contrasts the character of Luv, who thought of herself as the angel of the story until this moment.

K is the latest Nexus Model 9 replicant. Model 9's are suppose to be the most obedient. K works for the LAPD, so he is a K9. Later in the film, after the replicant Luv kicks K to the ground she says "Bad dog!" A reference to K being a dog of a replicant. A K9.

The opening shot is of a green eye close up. It is later revealed that Rachel's eyes were green by Deckard.

As the main character is hiding out, the dog tries to indicate to him trouble is coming before their drones/security system are able to.

K thinks he may be the birthed replicant, Joi tells him he needs a name: Joe. Later, Deckard asks K his name. K says "Joe." After Joi's death, K walks past a Joi ad hologram that says "you look like a good Joe", causing K to think Joi may have been programmed to call him Joe.

Blade Runner 2049, in the scene where K meets Dr. Ana, you can see his reflection directly behind her in the frame. This is a visual foreshadowing of the fact that his memories are taken directly from hers, and she's realizing it in this very moment. His mind is a reflection of hers.
