In a post on Twitter, Manmohan wrote, "POCO fans! #DiwaliwithMi just keeps getting better. We have started rolling out MIUI 10 stable for #POCOF1 to all users. It's time to update!" The information was reiterated by Alvin Tse, Head of Pocophone Global in another Twitter post. He added that the update is rolling out to the global variant, Xiaomi Pocophone F1, as well.

As of now, Xiaomi has not provided the full details of the MIUI Global Stable ROM update via is MIUI Forums. However, several users on the forums and Twitter have shared screenshots of the update and its changelog. As per the images, the new MIUI update comes with version MIUI 10.0.4.0.OEJMIFH and measures 592MB in terms of size. The update is also said to bring the October 2018 Android security patch to the Poco F1.

MIUI 10 Global Stable update brings full-screen gestures to the Poco F1 as a better option for handsets with newer aspect ratios and thin-bezel displays. The update also includes natural sounds and ambient sounds. The MIUI 10 Global Stable ROM also includes the AI Portrait feature that adds a bokeh effect to shots - without requiring a secondary sensor at the front.
