iPad Air 1st Gen – Still Usable in 2019?!

I’ve decided I want to purchase an older iPad so I can use to watch videos, play a few simple games and browse the web with. I ultimately narrowed down my selection to the iPad Air 1st gen and the iPad Air 2nd gen. Here are the following price points I found:
iPad Air 1st gen – 128gb: ~$100 used condition with a few nicks and scratches
iPad Air 2nd gen – 64gb: ~$170 used condition with a few nicks and scratches
I don’t want to spend too much since I am only going to use it “on the side” but I want to know if the iPad 1st gen is even still usable in 2019. Is it too slow or laggy now? If you have either one, please let me know how it is! Thanks
