Yes. Whispersync won't be available for USB sideloaded books.
I stuck to Kindle because of this function. It was really convenient for me at first because I used to switch phones really often (I used to have bad luck with phones, they always broke) and everything would be the same after I re-installed the app.
These days I find myself only reading on my Kindle. It's small enough that I can put it in my bag and take it with me outside. Whispersync didn't really get that much of a use from me.
After Amazon axed mobi/azw, it was between my Kindle looking pretty or the ability to sync reading progress. Looking pretty won.
You could always use bookmarks and export your annotations from time to time to keep track of reading positions in case your device craps out on you and you have to start over.
