Various differences

The name of the character on the Title screen will change depending on the region. In US it is Espio the chameleon and in Japan it is Knuckles the echidna.
To climb walls with Knuckles, you must hold the jump button, otherwise he jump off the wall (much like Vector in the Final).
Knuckles climbing sprites are different.
Different end signpost.
Different Special Stage art.
When you call your partner, your sprite is in front of their's. Heavy looks so much smaller by comparison.
When a special stage is successfully completed, the results screen says "Got The Holy Ring" instead of "Got Chaos Ring."

Newtrogic High is mostly intact, however the Combi Catcher is not yet working. Instead, the makeshift NPC SELECT screen from Time Attack mode is used after your level is chosen.
The light switch is not present in Amazing Arena, nor is the mini-boss. However, you can complete the level regardless.
