How is vbyte calculated??
If your transaction is segwit, it would include some witness data. To calcualte the virtual size of a transaction, those witness data must be counted as one quarter the size of regular data.


Vbyte is virtual byte, also called as virtual size. From bytes to weight units, multiply it with 4.
For getting the weight units, you should multiply virtual size of the transaction by 4, not the size.

Just as stated above you can either calculate your own transaction size by yourself or take the suggestions from the wallet you’re using which is not so accurate all the time.
Wallet's transaction virtual size of a transaction would be accurate. Although, I am referring to those wallets that are highly recommended. I think what you mean that is not that accurate is the fee rate that the wallet is estimating as a result of not estimating the mempool's fee rate accurately.
