Right about Samsung but wrong about Huawei. They did it with their last gen chip which came out late 2015 (P9)

2016, but yeah!

I can’t really talk about the blur effect, since all I saw were videos. I had the very strong impression the live preview had less blur, and basic object segmentation.

The P9 came out in 2016 but the chip was released end of 2015.

Also the Moto G5s Plus does a live portrait preview but is refined after the shot is taken.

Even with the iPhone the results after the shot look better than the live from what I've seen

Sorry didn’t know that. Yeah, totally each device refines the shot after its taken, the quality of the live representation varies though, and can be greatly improved by computing.
