When you look at the online prices, you will see a 2yr contract price and full retail price. If you are not due for an upgrade, you will pay the full retail price which is somewhere from $300-$500 more than the contract price.

To avoid paying a lot of money, I think you can purchase an unlocked phone on e-Bay, or get a phone from someone, activate with VZW without renewing the contract and wait for the next year upgrade.

I really don't like like the fact that you aren't happy with your phone. Many times a phone freezes or is slow because of memory. What phone do you have? Did you clear out old texts or emails? You can also clear browser files that normally helps with freezing & slowness. You can also hard reset the phone to get it working normally again.
If you aren't eligible to upgrade at this point, you can pay retail price for the device of your choice.
