Do you keep your upgrade if you buy a phone at full price @ Verizon?

My current phone is broken. I want a new phone, but I'm not due for an upgrade until November.

If I buy a full price phone, without changing my plan or signing a new contract or anything.. will I still have an upgrade available in November?

    Yes, you can buy any Verizon phones as a replacement anytime and can keep your upcoming upgrade.

    Also, I suggest you purchase a used or new phone (phone only, no contract changes) at AmazonWireless and Amazon.com, the most trusted store and cheap prices online. Check them out now.

    Verizon's getting ready to change (they call it "simplifying") its upgrade policy starting Jan. 16, and it's not quite in favor of the consumer. As you can see in the above training material, customers on a standard two-year contract won't be able to upgrade in months 13 through 20 and instead must wait until the contract is nearly up. Also, the "New Every Two" program will be phased out as those customers re-up. Customers on one-year contracts won't be affected.

    So it's a step backward, and it makes it that much more important to pick a good phone (and be willing to spend a few extra bucks to do so) -- and that much more important for Verizon and the manufacturers to update phones as best they can.

    Yes, you will keep your upgrade if you buy a phone outright.
