The iPad Air 1st Gen (2013) is quite outdated by today's standards but can still be functional for basic tasks. Here’s what to consider:

Pros (Still Usable For)

Basic Web Browsing: Works fine for light browsing, but modern websites may load slowly.
Media Consumption: Can stream YouTube, Netflix (older versions of apps may be needed).
Reading & PDFs: Good for e-books, PDFs, and lightweight note-taking.
Casual Games: Some older games will still run well.
Basic Productivity: Works with older versions of Microsoft Office and Apple apps.

Cons (Limitations)

No iOS Updates: Stuck on iOS 12.5.7 (No newer app compatibility).
Slower Performance: Older hardware struggles with modern apps.
Limited App Support: Many apps no longer update or install.
Weaker Battery Life: Original batteries may have degraded significantly.
No Apple Pencil Support: Not ideal for digital artists or note-takers.

Verdict

If you only need a basic tablet for reading, media consumption, or light browsing, the iPad Air 1 can still work. However, for productivity, gaming, or modern apps, it’s better to upgrade. If you have one lying around, you can still repurpose it for specific tasks, like a smart home control panel or a dedicated e-reader.
